HO  would  be  without  a  year  book  if  one  is  within 
reach?  To  me  it  is  more  than  my  diary,  my  history, 
or  my  biography.  It  is  our  diary,  our  history,  our 
biography;  and  that  which  is  ours  is  always  more 
than  that  which  is  mine,  as  the  we  is  more  than  the 
1  or  the  me. 

I  know  that  clasped  within  its  covers  are  scenes 
and  sentiments,  which  in  time  to  come  will  freshen 
memory's  fading  colors,  and  help  me  to  live  o'er 
and  o'er  one  epoch  of  my  eternity,  so  full  of  life  and 
love  and  labor  well  enjoyed. 

The  year  book  is  intrinsically  of  the  school  and 
for  the  school.  To  the  stranger  it  is  a  sealed  vol- 
ume. It  is  a  current  reflex  of  what  the  school  has 
stood  for  from  the  student's  point  of  view.

i  T  may  not  be  amiss  to  state  in  brief  what  the  school  has  aimed  to  stand 
for  from  the  point  of  view  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  and  the  Faculty. 

First,  and  foremost,  has  been  the  aim  of  spiritual  growth,  that  is, 
love  of  the  Lord  and  loyalty  to  His  word.  His  ways,  and  His  institu- 
tions. To  this  end  the  school  has  stood  for  a  fixedness  of  purpose, 
that  is  ever  gaining  strength,  based  upon  ideas  that  are  at  once  fun- 
damentally  unchangeable,    yet  ever  progressive. 

It  has  stood  for  evolution  WITH  our  simple  faith,  not  an  evolu- 
tion FROM  our  simple  faith;  a  growth  WITH  our  infant  purity, 
never  a  growth  FROM  it;  an  advancement  WITH  simple  truth,  and 
never  FROM  it.  It  has  stood  for  a  spiritual  atmosphere  through 
which  not  only  a  knowledge  OF  God  but  an  acquaintance  WITH 
Him  might  be  obtained. 

A  picture  of  College  Hall  might  be  taken,  the  singing  of  the 
choir,  the  prayer,  the  playing  of  the  orchestra  might  be  recorded  on 
an  Edison  cylinder,  but  our  feelings  during  these  devotional  exer- 
cises defy  external  representation — they  are  ours  alone,  sweet  soul 
possessions. 

The  spirit  of  the  school  cannot  be  photographed,  neither  can  it  be  seen  or 
heard.  No  one  set  of  organs  can  make  it  interpretable,  —  even  a  simultaneous 
effort  of  all  one's  mental  faculties  cannot  grasp  it.  Its  comprehension  requires 
the  awakening  of  that  which  underlies  the  intellect,  when  one  says,  "I  know,  but 
how  I  know,  I  know  not." 

The  school  has  stood  for  intellectual  culture,  meeting  the  institutional  schol- 
astic requirements  of  the  age,  and  even  going  beyond  them  in  providing  a  larger 
field  of  choice  for  individual  aptitudes  than  is  usually  found  elsewhere.  It  has 
maintained  a  consistent  balance  between  cultural  and  industrial  education.  The 
Faculty  slogan  has  been,  "students  shall  not  be  led  into  mental  mists,  nor  shall  they 
be  permitted  to  form  the  habit  of  failing." 

The  Faculty  and  Student  Body  have  stood  together  for  clean  sports  and 
cultural  dancing.  The  School  has  fostered  such  recreation  as  enriches  the  insti- 
tution and  elevates  the  individual.  It  has  had  joy  over  conquest,  without  exulta- 
tion over  the  defeat  of  others.  The  school  has  stood  for  reciprocity  between  the 
Student  Body  and  the  Faculty.  The  former  has  had  no  occasion  to  make  a  de- 
mand, the  latter  no  cause  for  issuing  a  command.

EARLY  four  decades  have  passed,  since  the  16th  day  of  October,  1875, 
when  the  Brigham  Young  Academy,  now  the  Brigham  Young  Uni- 
versity, held  its  opening  session. 

Our  first  ten  years  were  spent  in  Lewis  Hall,  a  two-story  brick 
building,  which  site  is  now  occupied  by  the  Farmers  and  Merchants' 
Bank.  Those  who  put  time  and  money  into  the  erection  of  that 
building  had  no  idea  that  it  would  ever  be  used  for  a  school.  It  was  an 
amusement  hall  up  stairs,  with  a  stage  at  the  end.  Down  stairs  it 
was  a  dry  goods  store. 

When  Dr.  Maeser,  with  his  two  assistants,  and  his  little  band  of 
earnest  students,  (the  original  twenty-nine),  first  invaded  that  build- 
ing, they  made  the  amusement  hall  a  house  of  prayer  by  day,  and  at 
night    dedicated  it  to  lectures  and  wholesome  amusements. 

The  curtain  was  retained  and  the  stage  converted  into  a  class 
room.  Accounts  from  early  students  tell  us  that  mice  and  bats  held 
high  carnival  there  by  night,  and  not  infrequently  during  the  day, 
some  mouse,  braver  than  his  fellows,  would  sally  forth  to  the  dismay 
of  the  ladies  and  utter  destruction  of  discipline  of  the  school. 
But  all  this  was  of  small  moment  for  the  great  teacher  was  there,  as  also  a 
class  of  students  with  whom  large  exchange  of  soul  was  possible. 

Every  decade  of  the  history  of  the  institution  has  produced  good  and  efficient 
business  men,  but  the  first  decade  is  marked  by  the  presence  of  these  persons  who 
are  first  among  our  statesmen,  college  presidents,  and  lawyers. 

Senator  Reed  Smoot  and  Senator  George  Sutherland  are  of  this  number,  also 
Judge  William  H.  King,  who  served  in  the  lower  house  of  Congress. 

James  E.  Talmage  has  stood  as  Chief  Executive  both  of  the  L.  D.  S.  Uni- 
versity and  of  the  University  of  Utah.  Dr.  Benjamin  Cluff,  Jr.,  was  the  second 
president  of  the  Brigham  Young  University,  while  Joseph  M.  Tanner  served  as 
president  both  of  the  B.  Y.  College,  and  the  State  Agricultural  College,  of 
Logan.     George   H.  Brimhall  is  president  of  the  Brigham  Young  University. 

Added  to  the  names  of  the  two  eminent  lawyers  who  have  represented  us  in 
Congress  we  would  add  the  names  of  Judge  Scimuel  R.  Thurman  and  Judge 
Joshua  Greenwood. 

The  major  part  of  the  time  of  the  second  decade  was  spent  in  the  Z.  C.  M.  L 
Ware  House,  at  the  foot  of  Academy  Avenue.  Fire  had  consumed  Lewis  Hall 
and  for  a  brief  period  we  were  homed  in  the  basement  of  the  old  tabernacle  cind 
in  S.  S.  Jones'  store  on  Academy  Avenue. 

But  the  Ware  House  became  our  permanent  home — that  strange  rectangular 
building,  without  ornament  or  architectural  design,  built  for  a  packing  house,  its 
red  bricks  dulled  long  ago  by  the  smoke  of  passing  engines. 

Partitions  were  placed  within  the  building,  that  suitable  rooms  for  devotional 
exercises  and  class  recitations  might  be  provided.  Many  will  recall  those  old  class 
rooms,  with  their  white  pine  board  partitions  on  three  sides,  and  windows  let  in 
the  sun  in  roughest  possible  manner. 

Nothing  could  present  a  greater  contrast  than  the  class  room  at  the  old  Ware 
House,  and  the  class  room  in  the  Maeser  Memorial.  At  the  Memorial  every 
touch  of  wood  and  every  window  is  an  ornament ;  at  the  Ware  House  every  win- 
dow and  every  touch  of  wood  shocked  one's  sense  of  finish.     None  ever  there  will 

12 


forget  how  often  the  shriek  of  the  railroad  locomotive    broke  into  the  sequence 
and  harmony  of  our  class  recitations. 

A  marsh,  close  at  hand,  sometimes  bearing  cresses,  which  we  added  to  our 
noon  meal,  at  other  times  putting  forth  the  harsh  nettle,  with  which  we  stung  both 
hands  and  feet,  was  our  only  campus.     Gymnasium  we  had  none. 

But  those  days  are  hallowed  days,  to  the  students  of  that  time,  for  they 
brought  hours  of  exaltation  to  both  mind  and  spirit.  The  faculty  was  consid- 
erably enlarged.  This  second  decade  brought  forth  two  groups  of  students,  dis- 
tinguishing themselves  particularly  in  medicine  and  mathematics. 

A  group  of  five  or  six,  who  have  turned  to  medicine,  will  be  remembered  by 
the  students  of  that  day,  for  of  that  number  are  Dr.  George  Middleton,  Dr. 
Samuel  H.  Allen,  and  Dr.  E.  G.  Gowans    ^^l^!!8f|^A*«««s»- 

On  the  list  of  those  inclined  towards  mathematics  we  shall  place  the  names 
of  Dr.  Richard  R.  Lyman,  head  of  the  department  of  Civil  Engineering,  at  the 
University  of  Utah,  Caleb  Tanner,  State  engineer  for  many  years,  and  Professor 
Earnest  D.  Partridge  and  Professor  Joseph  L.  Home. 

There  are  some  other  persons  of  this  period  who  must  not  be  passed  by. 
First  on  the  list  is  State  Supt.  A.  C.  Nelson,  and  in  quick  succession  follow  the 
names  of  B.  S.  Hinkley,  of  the  Deseret  Gymnasium,  Salt  Lake,  Edwin  S.  Hinkley. 
dean  of  our  College,  and  Prof.  A.  C.  Lund  who  had  done  so  much  to  make  the 
next  decade  famous  for  musical  artists. 

Before  we  had  reached  the  third  decade  our  first  principal  headed  the  pro- 
cession which  led  us  triumphantly  to  our  new  home,  on  North  Academy  Avenue, 
the  present  High  School  Building.     We  were  very  proud  of  our  new  home. 

Here  Dr.  Maeser  resigned  and  Dr.  Benjamin  Cluff,  Jr.,  was  made  president. 
President  Cluff's  term  expired  two  and  one-half  years  before  the  completion  of  the 
third  decade,  and  since  that  time  Dr.  Geo.  H.  Brimhall  has  been  president. 

The  school  increased  and  expanded  on  all  sides.  Not  one  building  but  a 
group  of  buildings  soon  graced  the  campus,  made  lovely  by  the  presence  of  trees 
and  flowers  both  rare  and  beautiful. 

Things  unknown  before  now  became  part  of  the  school  life  and  activity.  Lit- 
erary contests,  athletic  contests,  curt  and  manual  training,  and  agriculture  exhibi- 
tions, dramatic  performances,  and  the  presentation  of  operas,  very  unusual  for  a 
school  of  our  years  and  experience,  all  became  part  of  the  regular  regime. 

Teachers,  preachers,  and  business  men  are  found  again  upon  the  roll  of  honor. 
Some  of  their  names  are  household  words  where  the  story  of  the  institution's 
growth  is  told,  for  they  are  of  the  number  who  have  contributed  most  gener- 
ously for  our  material  comfort.  The  names  of  Jos.  R.  Murdock,  Wm.  J.  Knight, 
Raymond  Knight,  W.  L.  Mangrum,  Eugene  R.  Allen,  Inez  K.  Allen  and  Jennie 
B.  Knight  are  suggestive  of  this  last  group. 

Another  group  of  physicians  are  noted,  as  also  a  group  of  college  professors, 
but  this  third  decade  is  conspicuous  in  our  history  for  the  artists. 

The  names  of  Mrs.  Fay  Loose  Stiehl  and  David  Reese  are  given  merely  to  suggest 
the  noted  group  of  soloists  who  came  before  and  after  Mabel  Borg.  William  Hansen, 
Asael  Nelson,  Ralph  Booth  and  Clarence  Hawkins  are  of  another  group  efficient  in  in- 
strumental work.  Orson  Campbell,  Calvin  Fletcher,  and  Aretta  Young  must  tell  the  stoi-y 
of  our  painters;  while  that  of  Annie  Pike  Greenwood.  Susa  Talmage  and  Elsie  Carol 
Chamberlain  must  bring  to  mind  those  famous  in  song  and  story.  The  fourth  decade  is 
more  than  half  gone.  We  have  passed  from  the  building  on  North  Academy  Avenue, 
where  daily  the  fruiter's  cart  is  heard,  to  the  hill  side.  In  a  palace  of  white,  with  the 
majestic  rockies  behind  us,  God's  blue  sky  above  us,  and  His  blue  lake  in  front,  we  have 
planted  our  College.  Its  work  has  just  begun.  Its  students  are  not  yet  thoroughly 
tested,  but  a  throng  behind  are  crying,  "See  that  you  fail  us  in  nothing."  Yours  the  tiled 
and  marble  stair.  Make  his  utterance  false  who  declared,  "that  this  is  an  age  of  gold 
but  net  a  golden  age."

The  Alumni  Association  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  has  furnished  many  of  the  leading  men  of  the  West 
for  the   past  thirty  years.     These   men   have  always  been  true  and  loyal  to  their  Alma  Mater. 

Besides  the  things  accomplished  outside  the 'school,  the  Association  has  recently  superintended 
the  building  of  the  Maeser  Memorial  at  a  cost  of  $114,000.  Every  dollar  of  this  amount  wrill  have 
been  paid  by  June  1,  1913.  There  is  not  a  more  beautiful  school  building  in  America  than  the 
"Maeser." 

The  Association  has,  this  year,  under  the  management  of  Prof.  A.  B.  Christensen,  bought 
forty-two  acres  of  land  just  behind  the  Maeser.  It  has  laid  out  a  townsite,  christened  it  Manavu, 
and  is  now  selling  lots  at  a  reasonable  price.  This  is  to  be  one  of  the  most  beautiful  of  college 
towns.     Do  you  want  a  lot? 

Do  you  think  the  Alumni  have  decided  to  stop  here?  They  have  great  plans  for  the  future. 
Already  a  college  hbrary  is  being  provided  for,  and  plans  for  new  buildings  on  Temple  Hill  are 
laid.  Such  men  as  Professors  Hinckley,  Christensen.  and  Keeler  have  put  the  strength  of  their 
restless  souls  into  the  cause  and  have  determined  to  build  for  the  B.  Y.  U.  grand  and  stately 
mansions.

ANNA  OLLERTON 
Parowan,   Utah 

The  last  female  survivor  of  the  class. 
Of  the  little  suffragette  we  are  proud. 

"Tis  the  last  rose  of  summer 
Left  blooming  alone; 
All  her  lovely  companions 
Are  faded  and  gone;" 
And  for  bonnie  Anna  Olle 
We  would  lay  us  down  and  de. 


JUNIUS  BANKS 
Pleasant  Grove.  Utah 

A  genius  is  Junius,  and  yet  not  a 
mere  dreamer.  He  finds  "sermons  in 
stones,  books  in  the  running  brooks." 
Has  relatives,  by  name,  in  every  town 
of  the  state.  Very  religious,  yet  finds 
some  good  in  Socialism.  He  has  but  a 
single  aim  in  life — the  chair  of  geology 
in  the  B.  Y.  U.

ARTHUR  L.  BEELEY 

Provo,  Utah 

A  dignified  English  country  gentle- 
man. He  both  "orates"  and  debates. 
Loves  President  Brimhall  and  himself. 
Ineligible  to  office  of  President  of 
United  States,  but  expects  to  become 
Chief  Justice  of  Supreme  Court.  On 
the  matrimonial  fence.  He  has  brought 
many  honors  to  the  B.  Y.  U. 


WILLIAM  H.  BOYLE 

Provo,  Utah 

A  mighty  mfm  is  he  with  large  and 
tender  heart,  Principal  of  the  Sub-High 
School  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  As  such  he  has 
started  many  a  youngster  on  the  right 
track. 

"If  he's  a  watchin'  on  his  beat, 
He'll  tramp  from  east  to  west. 
And  north  to  south — in  cold  and  heat 
He  does  his  level  best. 


25 


DEAN  BRIMHALL 
Provo,  Utah 

A  tall,  spare  young  man  with  a  char- 
acteristic Lincoln  pose.  A  fluent  ora- 
tor and  skillful  debater.  Gritty,  too, 
and  has  learned — 

"To  dream — and  not  make  dreams  his  master; 
To  think — and  not  make  thoughts  his  aim; 
To  meet  with  Triumph  and  Disaster 
And  treat  those  two  imposters  just  the  same." 


FRED  BUSS 

Provo,  Utah 

This  enterprising  genius  has  traveled 
the  country  over  and  done  many  things. 
In  his  line  are  automobiles,  photo- 
graphs, peaches,  and  geology.  At 
present  he  is  trying  to  mix  farming  and 
teaching.     Disastrous  to  farming. 


2S 


JAMES  CLOVE 
Provo,  Utah 

Big,  good-natured  "Jim."  Noted  for 
his  copy  of  the  Taft  smile.  A  profound 
student  of  agriculture  and  politics,  with 
a  slight  sprinkling  of  poetry.  Future 
title,  U.  S.  Secretary  of  Agriculture. 


WILSON  GLAZIER 

Provo,  Utah 

A  practical  man  is  our  class  presi- 
dent. "Slightly  severe  and  a  little  aus- 
tere." "He  hears  merry  tales  and 
smiles  not."  Dancing  he  abhors ;  emu- 
lates Miles  Standish.  Mathematics  and 
Physics  are  the  joy  of  his  soul,  his  cloud 
by  day  and  his  pillar  of  fire  by  night — 
scrapper,  too. 


27 


JOHN  G.  GUBLER 

Provo,  Utah 

Features,  ruddy,  rugged,  Teutonic. 
Magnificent,  good  humor,  even  under 
adverse  rulings.     Has  debated. 

"It's  easy  enough  to  be  pleasant 

When  life  flows  along  like  a  song. 
But  the  man  worth  while  is  the  one  who  will 
smile 
When  everything  goes  dead  wrong." 


CHARLES  HAFEN 

Santa  Clara,  Utah 

Born  and  "come  up  in  Dixie." 
Known  nowhere  except  in  the  class 
room,  and  at  42  East,  Eighth  North 
Street.  It  is  rumored  that  he  is  mar- 
ried. A  philosophical  mathematician, 
and  a  mathematical  psychologist.  "Re- 
den  ist  Silber,  schweigen  ist  golden." 


28 


HARRISON  HURST 

Colonia  Dublan,  Mexico 

A  San  Peter  by  birth  and  complex- 
ion, a  Mexican  by  rearing  and  speech, 
and  a  B.  Y.  Utonian  by  education  and 
engagement,  "Harris"  stands  "four 
square  to  all  the  winds  that  blow." 
Equally  persistent  in  Love  or  in  Chem- 
istry, he  gives  promise  of  succeeding  in 
both.  He  is  low  of  speech  and  quiet  in 
manner,  but  a  maker  and  lover  of  a  sly 
joke.  As  a  charter  member  of  the  class 
he  has  experienced  all  its  downs  and 
ups. 


J.  M.  JENSEN 
Provo,  Utah 

Puflfing  and  panting,  he  is  trying  hard 
to  keep  up  with  the  educational  band 
wagon.  He  has  for  his  inspiration, 
"Never    say    die    till    you    are    dead." 

"Gray  hairs  ?t  twenty? 

Yes,  white,  if  you  please. 
Where  the  snow-flakes  fall  thickest. 

There's  nothing  can  freeze." 


29 


ALFRED  KELLEY 

Provo,  Utah 

Poor  financier;  better  pedagogue. 
"How  much  better  is  it  to  get  wisdom 
than  gold !  And  to  get  understanding 
than  silver."  Debates  but  never  sings. 
His  growth  went  into  his  vocabulary. 
"To  be  or  not  to  be ;  that  is  the  ques- 
tion." 


RAY  OBERHANSLEY 

Payson,  Utah 

"He  who  makes  two  blades  of  grass 
to  grow  where  but  one  grew  before  is  a 
benefactor  of  his  race."  Mr.  Ober- 
hansley  is  a  firm  believer  in  this  senti- 
ment and  expects  to  become  a  great 
benefactor  of  mankind — by  proxy. 


30 


RAY  PARTRIDGE 

Provo,  Utah 

He  does  not  come  within  the  poet's 
category  of  those  who  are  fit  for  trea- 
sons, stratagems,  etc.,  because  they 
have  no  music  and  mathematics  in  their 
souls.  Motto  of  his  hfe :  "Always  cross 
a  bridge  before  you  reach  it,  but  never 
go  back  and  stand  on  it  after  you  have 
once  passed  it." 


ERASTUS  SNOW  ROMNEY 

Colonia  Dublan,  Mexico 

An  American  by  birth,  a  Mexican  by 
residence,  a  Scandinavian  by  complex- 
ion, a  philosopher  by  education. 

"Verily,  he  is  a  shrewd  philosopher. 
And  has  read  every  text  and  gloss  over. 
Whate'er  the  crabbed'st  author  saith 
He  understands  b'  implicit  faith: 
Whatever  sceptic  can  enquire  for; 
For  ev'ry  why  he  has  a  wherefore." 


31 


EDWIN  H.  SMART 
Provo,  Utah 

Of  a  poetic  temperament  and  with 
agricultural  proclivities.  Professor 
Smart  has  clearly  demonstrated  that — 

"In  the  mud  and  scum  of  things 
There's    always    something    that    hums    and 

sings." 
A   strong  advocate  of  the  "back-to-the-farm" 

movement. 


ROY  A.  WELKER 
Paris,  Idaho 

Editor  and  "chief  push"  of  Byutah. 
Has  "a  smile  that  is  childlike  and 
bland."  A  leader  of  men  without  ap- 
pearing so ;  rules  with  a  rod  of  kindness. 
He's  a  philosopher  and  can  use  English 
well  enough  to  prove  he  is,  but  still  he's 
not  well  balanced — his  mind  is  bigger 
than  his  body. 


32 


ORA  CUNNINGHAM 

Pleasant  Grove,  Utah 

Recently  a  Hoosier,  now  a  welcome 
Utahn.  "So  when  even  was  come,  the 
lord  of  the  educational  vineyard  saith 
unto  his  steward  'Call  the  labourers 
and  give  them  their  hire." 

"And  when  they  came  that  were 
hired  about  the  eleventh  hour,  they  re- 
ceived every  one  a  sheepskin."

ous, married,  and  happier  than  he  looks.

.Who  'limy  are  said  'w'srd-i  'ihiij  "toe" 

^BlRST,  then,  by  comparison  let  us  distinguish  this  choice  specimen  of  the 
schoolman,  the  Soph.  He  is  not  a  Freshie  for  he  has  so  far  evolved  as 
to  have  shed  his  scales  of  green,  and  to  have  shaken  the  burrs  and  hay- 
seeds from  the  wooly  mat  on  the  convex  side  of  his  dome.  No  longer 
is  it  necessary  for  him  to  smite  his  heels  hard  when  walking  in  order  that 
his  presence  in  College  may  be  known,  nor  to  spend  his  nickels  for  opera 
bars  in  order  to  get  something  he  can  do.  Neither  has  he  yet  acquired 
the  fossilizing  habits  of  the  Junior.  He  is  yet  a  social  creature  and  not 
a  bookworm;  he  can  yet  recognize  a  fellow  being  as  such,  and  can  still 
exchange  a  pleasant  word  or  a  smile  for  even  money.  And  thank  for- 
tune he  is  not  yet  a  Senior,  with  his  head  in  the  clouds  and  his  mind 
"beyond  the  bounds  of  time  and  space,"  deigning  to  come  to  earth  occa- 
sionally for  its  good,  not  for  his  own. 

What  is  a  Soph,  then?  He  is  a  student  bearing  the  same  general 
outline  as  others,  but  differing  in  perfection  of  detail.  He  is  sufficiently 
profound,  with  the  childish  follies  of  a  Freshie  laid  aside,  and  with  a  keen 
appreciation  of  the  value  of  time  and  opportunity.  He  studies  early  and 
late ;  works  hard  and  plays  vigorously.  But  he  is  yet  natural  enough 
that  he  can  be  pleasant,  and  meek  enough  that  he  can  be  taught. 

Oh!  who  wouldn't  be  one  of  these  healthy,  happy,  solid,  sensible, 
cheerful,  charming  Sophs?  All  the  lower  classmen  are  trying  to  become 
Sophs,  and  only  his  unconquerable  zeal  and  incomparable  record  which 
thrust  upon  him  the  credits  that  compel  him  to  enter  a  higher  class  could 
ever  make  the  Soph  anything  but  a  Soph. 

Other  classes  may  enumerate  their  achievements  in  order  to  attract 
attention.  We  purposely  refrain.  The  honors  accumulated  by  our 
heroic  band  is  far  too  lengthy  for  a  brief  history.  Besides,  our  modesty 
forbids  any  such  self-praise.

|N  October  28th,  1912,  a  bunch  of  green,  but  determined  freshmen 
met  at  the  Brigham  Young  University  and  organized  the  class  of  1916. 
The  position  of  a  first  year  student  is  not  very  desirable,  his  awkward- 
ness makes  him  the  laughing  stock  of  the  older  students  and  the 
strangeness  of  his  environment  fills  him  with  homesickness,  but  there 
are  some  advantages  even  in  being  a  freshman — he  has  no  "condi- 
tions" of  former  years  to  "work  off;"  he  does  not  have  to  worry  about 
his  thesis,  for  he  has  plenty  of  time  to  prepare  that  later;  and  he  is 
free  to  choose  his  line  of  study,  because  he  has  not  as  yet  closed  the 
gate  to  amy  pursuit  by  specialization. 

And  so  they  met  and  elected  their  numerous  officers ;  all  of  whom 
have  been  forgotten  except  the  president,  Mr.  Kenneth  Parkinson,  the 
two  vice  presidents.  Miss  Lottie  Gibson  and  Mr.  Chauncey  Baird,  and 
the  secretary,  Mr.  Leland  Farrer :  and  despite  the  handicap  they  were 
under,  they  began  at  once  to  make  their  presence  in  the  institution 
known.  The  night  of  Nov.  5th,  they  had  a  grand  parade  in  honor  of 
the  fact  that  a  new  president  had  been  chosen;  then,  withdrawing 
from  the  noisy  streets  to  the  quiet  rink,  they  skated  until  midnight. 

Class  meetings  of  the  Freshmen  were  held  twice  a  month  and  each  meeting 
was  an  actual  party.  Besides  these  regular  events  they  found  time  to  give,  on 
November  20th,  a  "Japanese  progression"  party  in  which  Mr.  Stewart  Horsely, 
Miss  Vivian  Parkinson,  Miss  Lottie  Gibson,  and  Miss  Ethel  Taylor  were  the 
hosts:  and,  that  those  who  could  not  go  home  for  the  Thanksgiving  recess  might 
find  entertainment,  another  party  was  given  on  November  29th,  at  the  skating 
rink. 

Not  realizing  what  their  joy  would  cost,  for  they  were  unexperienced  in  the 
ways  of  college  life,  they  spent  the  first  semester  in  a  "real  jolly  good  time"  and, 
when  the  "exams"  were  over,  they  saw  that  they  were  growing  more  like  the  other 
students — they  now  had  some  "conditions"  to  remove.  Alarmed  at  this  new 
phenomena,  they  called  a  meeting,  dismissed  their  old  officers  and  elected  a  more 
conservative  set.  The  new  executive  consisted  of  Mr.  O.  F.  Call,  Miss  Marian 
Andelin,  and  Dr.  Dean  Clark,  the  old  secretary  Mr.  Farrer  being  retained. 

The  class  has  entertained  once  since  this  terrible  discovery,  that  was  at  the 
grand  ball  given  in  the  Mozart  on  February  5th.  The  party  was  open  to  the 
general  student  body  and  has  been  pronounced  "the  big  dance  of  the  season." 

And  this  is  the  history  of  the  Freshmen  class,  but  before  closing  it  should  be 
mentioned  that  there  are  three  special  honors  held  by  the  1916's:  the  winning  of 
the  cross  country  race  on  November  27th. by  Mr.  Wayne  Hales;  the  success  of  Mr. 
John  W.  Carter  in  the  Christmas  prize  contest;  and  the  defeat  of  all  the  other  class 
teams  in  basket  ball  by  the  first  year  boys.  They  edso  furnished  one  man,  Mr. 
Rollen  Tietjen,  for  the  inter-collegiate  debating  teams.

OW  timid,  shrinking,  and  fearful  we  felt  as  yearlings  when  our 
friends  the  "sophs."  "juns."  and  "sens,"  hooted  us  for  being  under  the 
unlucky  graduating  star  of  '13.  But  our  fears  were  foolish,  and  their 
jeers  proved  no  wiser. 

"Tonight  at  4  o'clock  in  24  H.  the  First  Years  will  hold  their  first 
meeting  for  the  purpose  of  organization,"  methodically  announced  a 
professor  from  the  rostrum  early  in  the  school  year  of  1909.  Such  the 
humble  announcement  of  the  birth  of  an  organization  containing 
members  destined  to  achieve  school,  state,  and  world  distinction. 

With  this  first  announcement  new  forces  began  to  operate,  and 
four  days  later,  October  8th,  these  activities  crystalized  into  a  com- 
plete class  organization,  launched  for  a  four  year's  voyage  of  threat- 
ened "hard  luck." 

Did  this  unlucky  class  flounder  or  founder?     Let  us  see. 
Founder's  Day  came.    The  coach  urged  us  to  enter  some  of  our 
men,  and  try  at  least  for  fourth  place.     The  events  were  "pulled  off." 
The  official  announcer  read  the  final  scores  and  lo !  two  of  those  "un- 
luckies,"  Baird  and  Workman,  took  first  places,  respectively,  in  the 
100  yard  dash  and  the  shot  put. 

At  once  the  entire  class  came  to  a  realization  of  its  capabilities,  and  jumped 
enthusiastically  into  all  school  activities.  No  more  did  the  mill  stone,  "13  and 
hard  luck,"  pull  us  down  to  the  bottom  of  student  life. 

A  year  later  found  us  as  much  alive  as  ever.  We  added  a  new  officer  to  our 
organization  who  made  us  drive  the  "hoodoo"  entirely  away  from  the  name  "thir- 
teen" by  keeping  us  yelling  "Reih,  Rah,  Rah ;  Rah,  Rah,  Rah ;  Rah,  Rah,  Rah — 
13's,  13's,  13's."  And  soon  we  had  occasion  to  keep  this  yell  ringing  for  one 
whole  half  day.  It  was  at  the  annual  spring  class  meet  of  1911,  where  we  captured 
the  coveted  "First  Place"  with  a  record  of  32  points. 

"Say,  we'll  have  to  subdue  those  13's  or  they  will  take  everything,"  remarked 
one  of  the  wise  "12's."  And  he  guessed  it  just  right.  We  took  all  track  meets, 
and  the  baseball  and  basketball  events  the  next  year.  That  was  when  we  were 
three-year-olds. 

In  the  summer  following,  July,  1912,  came  the  glad  news  from  Stockholm  that 
Alma  Richards,  our  "13-star"  athlete  had  won  the  World's  Championship  high 
jump.  Forthwith  we  hastily  procured  an  iron  band  to  clamp  around  the  head 
of  that  mighty  13  class.     "Hard,"  did  you  other  fellows  say? 

As  there  was  nothing  higher  than  World's  Championships  for  our  athletes  to 
win,  our  class  turned,  during  its  last  year,  from  the  athletic  field  to  the  intel- 
lectual. Here,  too,  our  success  was  phenomenal.  Teachers  and  students  alike 
admired  our  spirit  and  success. 

Nor  at  any  time  have  we  lost  sight  of  our  class  motto,  "Aim  High,  Work 
Hard,  Be  Noble."  Growing  from  a  bashful,  awkward  bunch  of  youngsters  to  our 
present  more  desirable  position,  we  have  undergone  many  changes  and  endured 
some  hardships.  But  our  experiences  were  enjoyable  as  well  as  profitable.  As 
High  School  students  we  must  say  good-bye.  We  recall  the  many  experiences  of 
our  school  life  with  fond  recollections,  and  feign  would  live  over  again  those 
joyous  times.

Meouw ! 

Hal — "Do  I  make  myself  plain?" 

Merle — "Somebody  has,  if  you  haven't." 


Tillie  to  Howe — "What  did  you  say  to  Pearl  when  you  made  up  your  mind 
you  wanted  to  marry  her?" 

Howe — "I  said,  yes,  dear." 

Every  summer,  when  the  Biological  Department  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  is  not  in 
session  it  is  necessary,  through  the  prolific  increase  of  the  canine  breed,  for  the 
city  authorities  to  enact  laws  imposing  a  heavy  tax  on  male  and  female  dogs.  The 
authorities  of  the  city  are  becomingly  modest  and  through  this  modesty  have 
made  the  ordinance  to  read :  "Tax  on  each  dog — male  one  dollar,  vice  versa,  three 
dollars." 

Prof.  Jensen  in  History — "Why  was  Mary  Queen  of  Scots  bom  in  Linlith- 
gow?" 

Merle  M. — "Because  her  mother  staid  there," — and  there  was  nothing  more 
to  be  said  on  the  subject. 

Dean  Brimhall  soliloquizing — "Any  fool  can  get  married,  but  it  takes  a  man 
of  nerve  to  resist  the  temptation  until  he  can  afford  such  luxury." 


Friendship  is  a  reciprocal  endurance  of  mutual  egotisms. 
The  desire  for  sympathy  is  like  morphine,  it  forms  a  habit. 


The  linguist  is  enabled,  by  education,  to  make  a  fool  of  himself  in  a  variety  of 
tongues. 

Every  man  has  his  religion,  with  some  it  is  witch  hazel. 


Imagination  is  the  gift  of  God  zind  the  instrument  of  the  devil. 


Jimmie  giggled  when  the  teacher  read  the  story  of  the  Roman  who  swam 
across  the  Tiber  three  times  before  breakfast.  "You  do  not  doubt  that  a  trained 
swimmer  could  do  that,  do  you,  James?" 

"No,  sir,"  answered  Jimmie,  "but  I  wonder  why  he  didn't  make  it  four  and 
get  back  to  the  side  his  clothes  were  on." 


He  looked  in  a  store  window  and  saw  "hats  reduced." 
"Heavens!"  said  he  to  himself,  "what  were  their  originzd  size?" 


In  a  corridor  of  one  of  the  University  of  Texas  buildings  there  is  a  large 
Replica  of  "The  Winged  Victory."  A  waggishly  inclined  student  observed  the 
headless,  armless,  footless,  statue,  and  wrote  underneath:     "God  pity  defeat."

NCE  upon  a  time  (Sept.  15,  1910)  from  the  North,  South,  East  and 
West,  there  gathered  together  at  the  B.  Y.  U.,  a  group  of  boys  and 
girls.  Inexperience  made  us  bold.  Therefore,  the  opening  of  the  huge 
front  door  did  not  shock  our  nerves,  but  once  inside,  the  sight  of  the 
hall-ways,  stairs,  and  doors  disturbed  our  r.  ental  equilibrium,  and  we  became  be- 
wildered. Preconceived  visions  of  success  came  to  our  memory,  and  stimulated 
thereby,  we  spurred  onward,  not  even  noticing  the  jeers  of  the  older  students, 
passing  in  the  hall-way. 

Ambition  burned  in  our  veins,  determination  gleamed  in  our  eyes,  and  before 
October  15th  we  were  organized  into  a  solid,  vigorous  class.  Mr.  Orvil  Morrison 
was  chosen  first  class  President. 

Immediately  following  the  organization,  a  handshake,  the  eighth  wonder  of 
the  world  to  us,  served  as  an  introduction  into  society.  The  handshake  was  fol- 
lowed by  a  skating  party. 

Later  reorganization  became  necessary,  and  the  class  continued  on  its  journey 
with  Marion  Harris  as  pilot.  On  we  sped,  successfully  coping  with  each  problem 
that  came  to  us,  until  the  spring  class  meets  were  upon  us.  When  the  smoke  of 
contest  had  cleared  away  our  red  and  white  banner  with  its  brave  inscription, 
"Comin'  down?"  "Reckon  Not!"  waved  proudly  on  the  ridge  of  the  grand  stand. 
This  scored  our  first  success  over  higher  classes.  A  celebration  in  the  moun- 
tains manifested  our  joy. 

Early  in  October,  1911,  we  organized.  Will  Stringham  was  chosen  as  guide. 
On  Founder's  Day  we  again  showed  our  superiority  by  winning  from  the  13's 
H.  S.,  the  shoe  lace  rush,  and  later  covered  ourselves  with  victory  by  snatching  the 
pennant  for  the  inter-class  wrestling  series,  and  also  the  girls'  relay  race.  We 
even  dragged  the  First  Years  into  the  icy  water  of  the  mill-race,  as  they  sped  away 
to  the  mountains  for  their  annual  festival. 

Again,  October  7,  1912,  we  exhibited  our  physical  strength  by  winning  a  vic- 
tory over  the  graduating  class  in  a  Founder's  Day  rope  rush. 

Bert  Kinsey  was  chosen  helmsman  for  the  year,  and  the  social  opening  was  a 
shadow  party. 

Then  a  slight  cloud  darkened  our  path,  robbing  us  of  the  Basketball  Pennant. 
This,  however,  was  only  a  reminder  to  broaden  our  views  and  make  us  more  dil- 
igent. 

The  ballots  were  cast  once  more,  and  for  the  third  time  Mr.  Harris  accepted 
the  kingly  crown,  and  the  Nineteen  Fourteens  passed  on  under  his  direction. 
From  the  past  all  may  see  our  ability. 

From  the  past,  all  may  see  our  aim; 
From  the  past  all  may  judge  our  future. 
Just  watch  us  climb  and  win.

CLASS    WUESTI.IXf;    CHAMPIONS 


HE  first  notice  accorded  the  15's  H.  S.  class  was  the  following  remark, 
which  appeared  in  the  "White  and  Blue:"  "Sh-h.  but  wasn't  that  a 
^  dangerous  burst  of  the  First  Year  class  enthusiasm  in  College  Hall 
(^^^^^  Founder's  Day?"  soon  after  we  entered  school.  During  the  remain- 
ing term  of  1911-12  various  samples  of  class  literary  genius  and  social  doings  were 
published  in  the  same  illustrious  paper. 

We  made  about  as  many  mistakes  es  was  possible  for  a  class  to  make  during 
our  eventful  and  intensely  interesting  first  year.  "Sunny  Jim"  certainly  had  some 
reason  for  stating  that  "the  first  year's  had  held  three  class  meetings,  elected  three 
presidents,  made  three  fizzles;  and,  if  they  kept  on  the  way  they'd  started,  in  1915 
the  school  would  graduate  three  hundred  political  bosses." 

Our  debaters  lost  to  the  "12's"  by  so  narrow  a  margin  that  President  Brimhall 
was  led  to  remark,  "If  the  yearlings  can  do  so  well  now,  what  will  they  do  when 
they're  four  year  olds?" 

Our  wrestlers  have  "made  good"  and  our  debaters  hope  to.  Nels  says,  "We 
stand  as  good  a  chance  as  anyone,"  and  he  ought  to  know,  he's  one  of  them 

Last  year  we  began  to  realize  what  kind  of  school  we  have  the  privilege  of  at- 
tending and  what  our  student  body  stands  for.  Our  deeds  alone  can  say  whether 
we  appreciate  them  or  not.

HE  greatest  successes  are  derived  from  a  class  working  under  adverse 
circumstances,  with  an  aim  for  success.  The  '16  H.  S.  ranks  as  the 
leader  in  this  class.  Altho  entering  a  lean,  lank,  green,  gawky  class  of 
one  hundred  twenty-five  sheep  we  are  now  ready  to  advance  a  strong, 
stalwart  class  of  leaders.  Realizing  the  worth  of  moments  we  were  not 
slow  in  organizing  and  proceeding  to  accomplish  the  enormous  task 
before  us.  Mollis  Aylett.  a  progressive  San  Peter,  was  ele;ted  to  fill  the 
initial  position  of  President. 

Class  meetings  and  rousing  parties  were  held,  and  renarkable  abil- 
ity was  shown  at  the  Founder's  Day  track  meet.  Our  Basket  Ball  team 
was  on  the  jump  from  the  start,  losing  only  to  the  Freshmen  in  the 
Championship  contest.  (Their  speed  was  a  marvel  even  to  Coach 
Roberts.) 

For  our  second  semester  a  change  was  instituted.  New  officers 
were  elected,  and  David  Manwaring  was  chosen  to  regulate  the  steer- 
ing wheel.  The  progressive  spirit  has  continued.  One  of  the  most 
charming  affairs  of  the  season  was  given  in  the  Sixth  Ward  Hall  by 
the  16's. 

Our    motto  is  "Ever  onward  to  success."

HEREVER  educational  institutions  have  been  established  in  a  state 
not  dominated  by  religious  influence,  intellectual  development  has 
been  the  chief  desideratum.  Physical  training  has  been  provided 
for  to  some  extent,  but  moral  education  has  been  almost  lost  sight 
of  in  the  curricula.  Perhaps  it  has  been  felt  that  the  Churches  would  care  for 
the  religious  side  of  man's  nature.  But  that  they  have  not  succeeded  in  this  is 
evident,  and  many  eminent  educators  have  voiced  the  opinion  that  our  schools 
must  supply  the  need  by  providing  moral  and  spiritual  instruction. 

The  Brigham  Young  University  is  unique  among  the  higher  schools  in  that 
it  does  this  very  thing — it  supplies  the  stimula  for  the  very  existence  of  this  great 
institution,  and  in  fact  for  the  existence  of  the  entire  Church  School  System.  So 
distinguishing  a  feature  must  be  entitled  to  careful  consideration. 

An  intelligent  faith  in  God,  familiarity  with  the  life  and  precepts  of  the  di- 
vine Teacher,  the  habit  of  prayer,  an  attitude  of  reverence  towards  things  sacred 
and  a  firm  belief  in  the  mission  of  the  prophet  Joseph  Smith — surely  these  things 
are  far  too  important  to  be  relegated  to  the  rear  during  the  education  of  your 
son  and  your  daughter.    Do  you  not  think  so.  Latter-day  Saint  parents? 

At  the  head  of  the  Theological  Department  is  an  earnest,  thorough,  experi- 
enced, religious  leader.  President  Joseph  B.  Keeler,  who  is  ably  assisted  by  a 
strong  corps  of  devoted  men  and  women  and  sustained  by  that  great  character- 
builder  and  faith-promoter.  President  George  H.  Brimhall.  These,  supplemented 
by  the  Student  Body  organizations  which  stand  firmly  for  the  same  lofty  ideals, 
have  created  an  atmosphere  where  low  motives  and  immoral  conduct  cannot  sur- 
vive, but  where  faith,  clean  habits  and  intelligent  effort  can  prosper,  to  the  salva- 
tion of  man  and  the  glory  of  God.

VERY  man  has  a  philosophy  of  life.  It  is  his  conclusion  whereby  he 
sums  up  the  meaning  of  his  experience  and  postulates  the  outcome; 
it  is  his  way  of  looking  at  things.  Having  a  philosophy  is  not  a  mat- 
ter of  choice ;  that  is,  one  cannot  have  one  or  not,  just  as  one  pleases. 

Everyone  who  thinks  must  have  this  fundamental   basis,    into   which   he   fits   his 

daily  life. 

It  is  important,  then,  that  we  have  a  good  philosophy.  Atheism,  or  materi- 
edism  rules  God  out  of  the  universe  and  seeks  to  explain  all  by  blind  force ;  agnos- 
ticism blights  the  mental  and  the  moral  life  and  leaves  the  holder  groveling  and 
despairing  in  impenetrable  darkness.  It  would  be  a  matter  of  minor  conse- 
quence, if  we  made  a  mistake  in  our  theories  of  light  and  electricity,  or  if  we 
erred  in  reading  geological  strata;  but  it  is  a  grave  and  serious  matter  when  we 
go  astray  in  the  fundamental  conceptions  of  life,  its  worth  and  destiny.  It  is  said 
that  philosophy  deals  in  vague  speculations  as  it  soars  in  the  mist  and  the  fog. 
Let  us  grant  that  there  is  some  truth  in  the  criticism;  but  where  is  the  field  of  hu- 
man achievement  where  the  mind  of  man  has  struggled  for  light,  in  which  the 
same  criticism  does  not  hold?  It  has  been  said  again  that  "philosophy  may  not 
bake  bread  for  us,  but  it  gives  us  God,  freedom  and  immortality" — and  we  may 
add  that  it  gives  a  better  flavor  to  the  bread  already  baked. 

As  our  school  aims  primarily  to  preserve  and  foster  the  religious  life,  we  are 
indeed  fortunate  in  having  at  the  head  of  the  Department  of  Psychology  and  Phil- 
osophy a  man  who  is  eminently  capable  of  guiding  our  young  people  from  the  dan- 
gers of  atheism  and  agnosticism.  Prof.  Chamberlin  has  studied  under  the  strong- 
est philosophers  in  the  East  and  the  West.  His  basic  purpose  has  been  to  save 
the  young  men  and  women  who  study  science,  from  the  pit-falls  of  materialism 
and  to  strengthen  their  faith  in  God  and  our  people.  That  he  has  been  success- 
ful is  the  testimony  of  all  who  have  achieved  his  view  point.

EDUeATION 


HE  destiny  of  the  human  race  is  largely  in  the  hands  of  its  educators. 
It  is  they  who  bear  the  responsibility  of  developing  the  future  citi- 
zens of  the  state  and  the  nation.  The  calling  is  a  sacred  one,  and  they 
who  choose  it  should  be  so  saturated  with  its  importcince  that  they  pro- 
ject the  highest  ideals  into  the  future,  and  work  to  reach  them.  Nothing  short  of 
a  well-balanced  unfolding  of  the  child  should  satisfy  them.  For  to  be  truly  edu- 
cated means  to  be  well  rounded  out ;  to  be  physically,  intellectually,  morally  and 
spiritually  developed. 

It  is  this  kind  of  development  that  the  Department  of  Education  is  emphasiz- 
ing. It  impresses  its  students  with  the  importance  of  such  ideals  and  gives  them 
the  best  methods  and  the  best  training  available  for  their  accomplishment.  Pro- 
fessor Brown,  one  of  the  leading  educators  of  the  state,  takes  pride  in  keeping  his 
department  in  close  touch  with  the  ideas  of  the  leading  educators  of  the  day.  Be- 
fore returning  home  from  his  trip  to  the  National  Educational  Association  at  Phil- 
adelphia this  winter,  he  visited  some  of  the  most  successful  schools  in  the  United 
States.  The  ideas  he  gained  were  given  to  his  students  to  better  prepare  them  for 
active  service  as  future  educators.

N  the  English  Department  of  the  Brigham  Young  University  a  stu- 
dent is  able  to  receive  instruction  in  all  the  branches  that  pertain  to 
this  language,  including  philology,  literary  history,  and  oral  interpre- 
tation, as  well  as  rhetoric,  literature,  and  the  study  of  the  English 
drama.  Technical  courses  are  offered  in  the  works  of  all  the  greater  authors 
from  the  modem  play  writers  to  the  early  Anglo-Saxon  poets,  specied  attention 
being  paid  to  the  writings  of  Chaucer,  Milton,  and  Shakespeare. 

Throughout  its  entire  curriculum,  the  aim  of  the  Department  is  to  create  in 
the  students  a  desire  for  better  literature,  and  even  in  the  elementary  rhetoric 
courses,  nothing  of  the  mediocre  is  permitted.  The  results  of  this  system  need  no 
comment  here,  the  excellent  work  of  former  students  is  a  testimony  of  its  success. 
Professor  Alfred  Osmond,  head  of  the  Department,  is  one  of  the  best  quali- 
fied teachers  in  the  State.  After  completing  his  work  in  Utah,  he  graduated  from 
Haivard  University,  where  he  gained  considerable  prominence  as  a  student  of 
Shakespeare.  He  is,  besides,  a  writer  of  some  eminence,  having  published  a  vol- 
um.e  of  poems  which  rank  high.  He  is  asssisted  by  Professor  Alice  Reynolds,  who 
has  spent  her  time  since  childhood  in  the  pursuit  of  good  literature,  and  who  is 
now  prepared  to  give  her  students  the  benefits  of  her  long  application. 

The  elocutionary  side  of  the  Department  is  conducted  by  Miss  Beatrice  Camp. 
Her  wonderful  powers  of  interpretation  and  unusual  ability  as  a  teacher  are 
thoroughly  recognized  throughout  the  state.

0,  Utah!     Oh,  Mother! 

1,  who  was  born  among  thy  mountains  fair, 
I,  who  was  cradled  in  thy  mountain  air, 
Memory  turns  my  heart  to  thee  in  pain — 

I,  who  shall  never  live  with  thee  again. 

No  other  love  hath  won  my  heart  from  thee. 

O,  Utah !    Mother !    Then  forget  not  me ! 

None  breathe  who  love  thy  mountains  more  than  I, 
Thy  heaving  lakes,  thy  burning  sunset  sky ; 
That  changing  sapphire  God  hath  set  upon  thee ; 
The  water  of  the  great  mysterious  sea ; 
Thy  rivers  gushing  down  through  canyon  rifts, 
Where  many  a  hoary-headed  mountain  lifts 
His  monarch  crown  of  snow  in  summer's  heat. 
Still  in  my  memory  all  these  scenes  repeat. 

I  look  across  the  flat  unbroken  plains, 

Out  where  the  fiery,  copper  sunset  stains 

Both  earth  and  sky — for  thus  they  lie  together, 

Welded  by  Sol,  the  horizon  for  a  ring 

About  the  earth,  set  with  the  ruby  sun. 

And  as  mine  eyes  look  west,  so  my  thoughts  run — 

Out  West !    My  West !    O,  Mountain  Home ! 

Well — let  it  be !    And  should  I  not  return. 
Yet  shall  this  message  through  my  silence  burn; 
Bury  me  there — O,  Mountain  Home,  at  rest — 
At  last  at  rest  upon  thy  loving  breast — 
O,  Utah !    Mother ! 

—The  White  and  Blue.

HE  excellent  work  being  done  in  the  Department  of  Ancient  and  Mod- 
em Languages  is  attracting  much  attention.  Students  planning  their 
work  for  next  year  are  choosing  liberally  from  the  courses  offered  in 
Greek  and  Latin,  as  well  as  in  German  cuid  French.  To  be  conversant 
in  these  languages  is  considered  an  accomplishment  which  not  only  promotes  cul- 
ture, but  also  adds  materially  in  acquiring  a  knowledge  of  other  subjects. 

The  College  is  fortunate  in  having  in  this  department  professors  of  rare  abil- 
ity. W.  H.  Chamberlain,  professor  of  Ancient  Languages,  is  especially  gifted  in 
teaching  Latin,  German  and  Hebrew.  He  fully  appreciates  the  importance  of  these 
subjects  and  his  interest  in  them  is  an  inspiration  to  his  students  to  prepare  them- 
selves to  enjoy  a  bigger  life. 

Professors  Christensen  and  Whittaker  are  not  open  to  the  charge  that  they 
do  not  know  their  subjects.  They  have  spent  several  years  in  Europe,  acquiring  a 
thorough  knowledge  of  French  and  German,  and  are  prepared  to  teach  these  lan- 
guages in  a  very  efficient  manner. 

The  department  offers  two  courses  in  Hebrew,  five  in  Greek,  three  in  Latin, 
eight  in  German,  and  seven  in  French.

HE  student  who  goes  through  college  without  doing  considerable  work 
in  mathematics  is  handicapped  when  he  enters  active  life.  He  finds 
he  has  neglected  a  side  of  his  education  which  would  have  aided  him 
in  being  more  useful  as  well  as  in  enjoying  a  richer  life. 

The  Department  of  Mathematics  ofTe  rs  a  very  complete  line  of  work.  Eleven 
different  courses  are  offered.  Any  one  who  is  interested  in  mathematics  can  find 
here  the  work  which  he  would  choose  to  pursue.  Students  preparing  to  be  teach- 
ers, electrical  or  civil  engineers,  or  who  wish  to  study  mathematics  simply  to 
broaden  their  fund  of  information,  will  find  in  this  department  just  what  they  are 
looking  for. 

Professor  Ward,  who  stands  at  the  head  of  the  Department,  is  our  ideal  Math- 
ematician. He  lives  in  a  world  of  mathe.r.atics,  and  is  so  full  of  his  subject,  one 
cannot  take  a  course  under  him  without  partaking  of  his  enthusiasm. 

Before  choosing  your  work  for  next  year,  consider  the  importance  of  the 
study  of  mathematics,  and  the  excellent  work  the  Department  is  doing.  Then  de- 
cide to  be  one  of  the  many  who  are  enlisted  here.

LL  the  emotions  of  the  heart  or  the  fancies  of  the  brain  are  quick- 
..  _  ened  and  stirred  by  a  contemplation  of  the  grandly  diversified  scenes 
^'^  to  be  met  with  in  History's  great  gallery.  He  who  loves  the  daring 
and  sublime  may  see  the  great  Napoleon  "conquer  the  Alps  and  min- 
gle the  eagles  of  France  with  the  eagles  of  the  crags."  He  who  revels  in  the  hor- 
rors of  war  may  gaze  upon  a  Waterloo,  a  Gettysburg,  or  a  Balaklala;  or  he  in 
whom  devotion  to  country  is  the  mainspring  of  fancy,  may  find  an  idol  for  his  ad- 
miration in  the  "Father  of  his  country." 

In  order,  however  to  appreciate  these  world-renowned  views;  to  know  their 
significance  and  relationship  to  the  whole;  to  see  vividly  the  momentous  humim 
struggles  that  produced  such  mighty  changes,  we  must  have  guidance  from  one 
who  knows.  And  such  a  one  is  found  in  the  head  of  our  Department,  Prof.  Chris- 
tian Jensen.  Master  of  his  subject,  searching  in  his  methods,  technical  in  his  re- 
quirements, he  has  made  History  and  Government  one  of  the  strongest  depart- 
ments of  the  B.  Y.  U.

ACH  year  the  work  of  the  College  is  becoming  more  definite  and  tech- 
nical, and  greater  specialization  of  work  is  required.  In  harmony  with 
this  progress,  a  separate  department  was  established  this  year  for 
^  Sociology,  Economics,  and  Commerce  under  the  direction  of  Profes- 
sors Swenson  and  Glade,  cind  never  before  has  the  work  been  so  satisfactory.  The 
courses  off ered  are  as  follows :  General  Principles  of  Economics,  Money  and 
Banking,  Corporate  Industry,  Labor  Problems  and  Legislation,  Economic  His- 
tory of  the  United  States,  Ocean  and  Railway  Transportation,  Public  Finance, 
Elements  of  Sociology,  Practical  Social  Problems,  Social  Economics,  Accounting, 
Advertising  aind  Selling,  and  Insurance. 

In  these  courses  an  effort  is  made  to  evolve  high  practical  ideals  of  citizen- 
ship, and  to  work  out  solutions  for  the  various  economic  and  social  problems  that 

present  themselves  in  our  country. 

Not  only  have  courses  of  instruction  been  given  to  the  regular  students  of 
the  University,  but  several  extension  courses  have  been  offered.  The  teachers  of 
Mona  have  been  instructed  in  Public  Finance,  those  of  Fairview  in  Sociology, 
and  the  Provo  City  teachers  have  been  given  a  course  in  Social  Problems. 

The  practical  nature  of  the  work  of  this  department  is  appealing  to  the  stu- 
dents more  strongly  each  year,  and  rapid  growth  is  the  inevitable  result.

N  leaving  Room  27  of  the  High  School  building  the  other  day,  a  vis- 
itor remarked,  "If  every  room  in  this  plant  is  operating  with  the 
effectiveness  and  zeal  exhibited  in  that  typewriting  department,  there 
is  certainly  a  tremendous  amount  of  energy  emanating  from  these 
premises.  Those  young  folks  seemed  to  be  work,  personified.  No 
father  would  be  disappointed  in  finding  his  son  or  daughter  in  that  group." 

That  means  more  than  it  appears.  In  every  nine  hour  day.  Room  27  wit- 
nesses over  3,288,600  distinct  operations,  and  the  beauty  of  it  all  is  that  they 
produce  sorr.ething  more  than  mere  perspiration. 

Example  :  It  was  the  evening  of  the  Aggie  game.  Dusk  was  already  em- 
barrassing the  incandescents  in  "27"  that  were  bravely  endeavoring  to  prolong 
the  day.  The  "Y"  band  was  eclipsing  Sousa  in  the  Gym  above,  and  Logan  had 
already  begun  to  warm  up.  Twenty-three  minutes  more  and  the  game  was  on. 
Then  came  an  order  for  FIVE  HUNDRED  "legal"  copies  of  the  College  cheers 
to  be  used  at  the  game.  A  dash  and  a  shift  and  the  tired  type  were  cutting  wax 
as  never  before :  five  minutes  later,  perfect  copies  were  leaving  the  duplicating 
cylinder,  and  in  six  minutes  more  the  waiting  bleachers  were  satisfied.  Not  one 
of  the  cheering  squad,  as  they  crumpled  those  sheets,  and  followed  the  lines, 
knew  of  the  effort  in  Room  27.  And  that  is  but  an  every-day  occurrence.  It  is 
no  wonder  that  the  old-fashioned  quill  is  hibernating  these  days. 

Efficiency  is  the  ability  to  do  in  a  given  time  what  the  people  want  done.  If 
they  Cem  wait  thirty  minutes,  all  right;  if  they  can  wait  but  five  minutes,  that's 
tirre  enough.  It  must  be  done,  amd  well,  too!  Of  course,  this  order  of  things  calls 
for  a  high  degree  of  systematization.  Miss  Billings  and  her  assistants  have  old 
"27"  well  in  hemd,  in  fact  they  may  be  termed  headquarters  for  genuine  business 
efficiency. 

Just  whether  the  President's  private  Secretary,  in  her  capacity  as  such,  be- 
longs to  the  business  department  is  a  question.  The  presidency  seem  to  be  sat- 
isfied with  the  manner  in  which  all  official  correspondence  is  handled;  we  should 
be  happy  in  having  helped  to  produce  so  efficient  a  young  lady. 

The  year  1913-14  will  see  the  introduction  of  a  course  for  which  we  have  long 
been  waiting.  The  official  appellation  is  English  C-2.  To  be  more  explicit — 
technical  Business  English  and  Correspondence.  Prof.  Holt  will  be  in  cheirge. 
This  fact  alone  guarantees  the  success  of  the  course.  Students  who  have  been 
under  his  inspiration  in  the  past  will  know  wher  to  recommend  friends. 

Rooms  23-22  21  of  the  High  School  have  been  busy  this  winter.  There  have 
been  approximately  70-50-24  students  in  each  department.  The  crowd  is  at  work 
any  day  at  2:30.  Here  is  where  young  folks  have  the  opportunity  of  showing 
their  metal.  Each  one  of  them,  during  the  semester,  has  about  600,000  definite 
operations  to  handle.  These  problems  he  must  meet  in  his  own  way,  and  the  dis- 
patch with  which  he  solves  the.Ti  determines  the  rapidity  of  his  progress.  Of 
course  there  is  a  scattering  all  along  the  way;  some  students  spend  many  min- 
utes nibbling  at  the  posterior  portion  cf  a  lead  pencil  and  thinking  of  the  folks 
at  home ;  others  respire  deeply  and  perspire  freely,  and  deem  their  desks  of  a  tre- 
mendous amount  of  work.

U. 


OME  join  our  Department  of  Chemistry  and  see  the  great  field  of 
facts  you  have  little  dreamed  of  heretofore.  Our  Department  has 
been  thoroughly  alive  this  year.  Greater  interest  than  ever  before  has 
been  shown  by  students  and  professors  alike.  The  laboratories  have 
been  humming  all  winter  with  the  work  of  miniature  manufactories  and  industries, 
and  the  principles  underlying  these  have  been  thoroughly  demonstrated  by  our 
work. 

Developed  from  the  old  time  alchemy  which  sought  to  find  a  process  to  make 
gold,  chemistry  has  become  a  very  exact  science  and  one  that  is  used  in  nearly  all 
our  industries,  so  that  today,  knowledge  more  precious  than  the  gold  sought  for 
by  the  ancients,  has  become  ours. 

Chemistry  is  fundamental  in  the  studies  of  medicine,  of  biology,  of  geology; 
in  many  manufacturing  industries,  in  mining,  in  agriculture,  in  the  preparation  of 
food  stuffs. 

Chemistry  gives  us  a  key  to  the  interpretation  of  nature.  It  helps  us  to  under- 
stand how  the  plants  make  food  and  clothing  for  man ;  it  shows  us  some  of  the 
forces  at  work  in  the  creation  of  our  great  earth ;  it  lends  to  us  interest  in  the  in- 
animate rock.  You  cannot  afford  to  miss  the  feast  of  fat  things  it  has  in  store  for 
you.     Come,  enlist!

g|  ISTORY'S   pages  are   replete  with  the  accounts  of  memorable  deeds 
J    of  men  and  of  nations.     We  marvel  at  the  culture  of  Greece,  the  mil- 


O  itary  skill  of  Rome,  of  men  who  lived  before  the  art  of  writing  was 
L=2S^^  developed.  History  teaches  us  practically  nothing,  the  historian  be- 
ing indebted  to  the  pen  for  whatever  knowledge  he  may  possess  of  by-gone  peo- 
ples. But  before  man  mastered  the  valuable  art  of  inditing,  earth  had  become 
an  experienced  hand  and  had  filled  many  a  page  with  thrilling  accounts  of  the 
birth,  life  struggle,  and  death  of  memberless  branches  of  her  family.  The  stone 
you  kick  out  of  your  pathway  is  a  page  from  Nature's  volume.  Can  you  read  it? 
This  page  may  be  written  in  the  simplest  prose,  but  our  historian  is  not  always  so 
considerate,  for  she  often  writes  in  the  strangest  hieroglyphics;  and  with  no  Ro- 
setta  Stone  as  a  guide,  we  are  often  sorely  perplexed  in  trying  to  discern  her 
nieaning. 

We  learn  to  read  Nature's  hand  only  by  continued  practice,  directed  by  those 
who  have  found  the  key.  But  once  the  art  is  acquired,  there  is  a  joy  which  comes 
to  the  reader  not  surpassed  that  awakened  by  a  masterpiece  of  fiction.  Our  Utah 
mountain  ranges,  cleft  to  the  core  by  magnificent  canyons  and  sheared  by  faults 
of  tremendous  throw  are  open  volumes  to  those  who  know  the  language.  No  lo- 
cation in  the  state  affords  a  better  opportunity  for  the  study  of  Geology  than 
Provo.  The  grand  old  Wasatch  range  with  its  gorges,  peaks,  and  ravines;  the 
shimmering  lake  at  its  feet,  the  shelving  beaches  of  ancient  Bonneville,  these  at 
her  very  door  are  veritable  treasure  houses  to  the  geologist.  Every  class  or  type 
of  topography  from  glacial  to  marine  is  found  within  easy  reach  of  our  school. 
The  department  of  Geology,  under  the  efficient  leadership  of  Professor  Hinckley 
who  has  a  deep  appreciation  of  our  natural  environment,  is  making  it  possible 
for  many  students  to  read  the  picture  writing  of  Earth's  pages,  and  to  solve  the 
mysteries  of  her  life  history.

'  NLY  those  who  have  visited  the  physical  laboratories,  or  who  have 
taken  courses  in  this  department  can  get  an  idea  of  what  is  being 
done  there.  Those  who  have  visited  the  laboratories,  and  have  re- 
ceived explanations  of  the  various  instruments  feel  themselves  richly 
repaid,  for  the  Physics  Department  is  the  best  equipped  of  all  the  laboratories  in 
the  school,  and  is  fully  equal  to  any  physical  laboratory  in  the  Intermountain 
Region. 

The  head  of  the  Department,  Dr.  Harvey  Fletcher,  is  a  graduate  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  Chicago,  and  one  of  the  most  successful  students  in  the  Department  of 
Physics  of  that  university.  At  present  Dr.  Fletcher  is  ably  assisted  by  Mr.  Carl 
F.  Eyring,  a  graduate  of  the  B.  Y.  U. 

With  these  professors,  in  so  well  equipped  laboratories,  the  students  may 
receive  instruction  of  the  highest  degree  of  efficiency.  The  number  of  students 
taking  advantage  of  these  facilities  at  present  is  about  fifty,  many  of  whom  are 
doing  advanced  work. 

The  pictures  on  the  opposite  page  show  a  number  of  views  of  the  laboratories 
with  a  small  number  of  instruments.  One  can  only  obtain  a  meager  idea  of  the 
equipment,  however,  from  these  pictures,  since  there  are  many  instruments  which 
can  not  be  moved,  and  are  therefore  not  shown.  Besides  class  room  and  labora- 
tory work,  many  excursions  are  made  to  near-by  factories  and  power  plants.  These 
add  interest  to  the  work  and  make  it  more  practical. 

To  interest  the  public  in  the  work  that  is  being  done  an  exhibition  is  held 
every  spring.  At  that  time  all  the  instruments  are  set  up  in  working  order,  and 
several  interesting  experiments  are  carried  out,  while  the  use  of  all  the  instru- 
ments and  apparatus  is  explained. 

During  the  entire  time  of  the  exhibition  last  spring,  many  hundreds  of  peo- 
ple thronged  the  rooms,  manifesting  the  deepest  interest.

^^  ROVO  probably  has  fewer  cats  and  dogs  than  any  town  of  its  size  in 
America.  It  is  not  because  there  are  fewer  born  here  that  this  is  true, 
for  more  are  actually  used  than  in  many  places  larger,  and  the  dogs  and 
cats  of  Provo  have  done  more  to  advance  the  intellect  of  man  than  have 
their  distant  kin. 

The  Biological  Department  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  has  been  severely 
weighed,  but  never  has  it  been  found  wanting.  It  has  delved  deep  and 
found  precious  gems,  it  has  reached  out  wide  and  far  and  gathered  in 
scientific  truths,  it  has  been  untiring  in  its  efforts;  the  depths  of  the 
night  have  yielded  up  to  it  many  truth  treasures. 

On  the  next  page  is  a  view  of  a  human  ovum  photographed  by 
Prof.  Rasmussen,  showing  many  details  seldom  found.  This  is  the 
result  of  the  most  careful  work.  A  cut  accompanying,  also  shows  the 
professor  at  his  interesting  work.  We  say  boldly  that  few  biological 
departments  of  our  western  country  are  more  fortunate  than  ours  in 
their  equipment  and  professors. 

Whoever  is  interested  in  the  study  of  life,  may  find  his  heart's  desire 
in  Animal  and  Plant  Psysiology,  General  Zoology,  Animal  and  Plant 
Histology,  Vertebrate  Embryology,  Neurology,  Plant  Taxonomy  and 
kindred  subjects.    Welcome  all.

O  branch  of  the  school  has  made  greater  progress  during  the  past  year 
than  has  the  Agricultural  Department.  Its  growth  is  marked  by  the 
addition  of  such  courses  as  Veterinary  Science,  Farm  Mechanics  and 
Agricultural  Botany.  The  laboratory  has  been  more  thoroughly 
equipped  with  new  apparatus,  a  new  greenhouse  has  been  built  and  furnished,  and 
a  new  instructor.  Dr.  Vance,  has  been  ad  ied  to  the  Agricultural  staff. 

The  enrollment  of  the  department  exceeds  the  two  hundred  seventy-five 
mark — an  increase  of  over  fifty  per  cent  as  co.-npared  with  previous  years.  In 
the  College  division  the  enrollment  has  more  than  doubled  that  of  other  years. 

The  professors  in  charge:  Merrill,  Smart,  and  Vance,  are  men  of  able  capa- 
bilities, firm  character,  and  are  unselfish  in  their  devotion  to  the  institution.  Stu- 
dents, through  their  inspiration,  have  come  to  regard  farming  as  a  dignified  pro- 
fession rather  than  a  drudgery. 

Superstitions,  such  as  planting  crops  in  the  dark  of  the  moon,  have  no  place 
where  the  fundamental  principles  of  agriculture  are  taught,  and  where  the  work 
is  reduced  to  a  science.  Tillage,  irrigation,  drjiinage,  and  the  like  are  the  super- 
stitions now  taught. 

One  of  the  most  pleasing  events  of  the  year  was  the  "Annual  Agricultural 
Exhibit"  in  which  a  greater  quantity  and  better  quality  of  fruit  was  displayed 
than  heretofore,  and  in  which  the  Agricultural  Department  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  re- 
vealed its  many  benefits  to  the  people  of   Utah.

HE  idea  of  training  teachers  professionally  for  their  work  is  a  modern 
one.  Luther,  the  great  reformer,  first  began  advocating  the  need  of  pro- 
fessional training,  in  addition  to  the  ordinary  scholastic  learning,  for  the 
important  work  of  teaching.  The  idea  soon  found  expression  in  the 
establishment  of  normal  schools  where  prospective  teachers  were  taught 
rot  only  what  they  were  to  teach,  but  also  how  to  teach  it.  This  idea 
began  to  be  advocated  in  America  not  over  a  century  ago,  and  in  the 
early  part  of  the  century  it  found  concrete  expression  in  the  establish- 
ment of  private  normal  schools.  When  private  adventure  had  proved 
the  value  of  these  institutions,  they  began  to  be  established  by  public 
school  systems  of  state  and  city.  The  idea  of  professional  training  given 
in  the  normal  school  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  has  been  thoroughly  realized,  and 
here  the  prospective  teacher  may  receive  actual  practice  in  teaching 
under  expert  supervision.  J.  L.  Brown,  a  graduate  of  the  Michigan 
University,  is  the  principal  of  this  department,  and  is  a  man  thoroughly 
qualified  for  the  place  he  holds.  He  is  a  son  of  the  One  Hundred  and 
Forty-three  Pioneers  of  Utah;  educated  himself  principally  by  his  own 
efforts,  and  has  merited  the  confidence  imposed  in  him  through  his  great 
integrity,  his  faith,  his  intelligence,  his  industry,  and  his  honesty. 

Miss  Schumaker,  a  very  eminent  trainer  and  educator  from  Pitts- 
burg, Pennylvania,  has  been  employed  to  guide  the  affairs  of  the  train- 
ing department  of  the  Brigham  Young  University. 

The  University  has  maintained,  practically  from  its  beginning,  a 
normal  school  that  has  sent  out  hundreds  of  teachers,  professionally 
trained,  and  imbued  with  the  proper  spirit  of  education. 

Under  the  able  management  of  the  supervisors  named  the  normal 
department  is  meeting  the  anticipations  of  its  founders  and  justifying 
its  establishment.

<  O  better  high  school  can  be  found  anywhere  than  the   high  school  of 
the  B.  Y.  U.     Few  institutions  emphasize  such  a  well-rounded  edu- 
cation as  this  school  does.    Young  men  and  young  women  are  devel- 
oped in  an  environment  where  the  influence  is  so  strong  for  moral  and 
spiritual  uplift  that  they  seldom  fail  to  make  good. 

The  intellectual  and  physical  education  they  obtain  becomes  so  thoroughly 
associated  with  moral  and  religious  training  that  in  future  life  they  are  inseparable. 

Inasmuch  as  it  is  the  work  of  the  high  school  to  prepare  students  to  enter 
college,  it  is  very  important  that  the  foundation  for  advanced  education  should  be 
substantial.  It  should  be  so  broad  that  it  will  permit  of  a  college  education  with- 
out the  students  drifting  from  morality  or  losing  faith  in  religion. 

It  is  this  kind  of  foundation  that  our  High  School  takes  pride  in  building. 
To  judge  whether  it  has  been  successful  or  not,  all  we  need  to  do  is  to  follow  its 
graduates  through  their  college  days  and  into  active  life.  The  school  will  wel- 
come such  an  investigation,  for  it  is  proud  of  the  educators,  business  men,  and 
other  good  citizens  who  began  their  advanced  education  under  its  influence.

URING  the  past  year  there  have  been  a  half-hundred  missionaries  take 
the  course  furnished  by  this  school.  They  ranged  all  the  way  from 
grade  students  to  second  and  third  year  high  school.  In  order  to  ac- 
commodate them,  classes  in  Theology.  English,  and  History  were 
arranged  to  suit  the  capacities  of  the  students,  and  special  teachers  were  fur- 
nished in  the  subjects  that  would  be  most  helpful  to  them  in  the  missionary  field. 
If  the  student  were  below  the  high  school,  he  was  given  United  States  History, 
English,  Music,  Penmanship,  Book  of  Mormon,  and  the  doctrines  of  the  Church. 
If  he  were  a  high  school  student,  he  was  given  European  History,  Church  His- 
tory, Mormon  Doctrine,  Music,  and  Oral  Expression.  In  fact,  the  course  arranged 
for  the  missionaries  and  given  to  them  the  last  year,  was  just  such  a  course  as 
would  be  a  powerful  help  to  all  men  and  women  in  the  Church  who  care  to  inform 
themselves  along  the  lines  of  theology,  history,  literature,  and  the  getting  of  that 
which  would  make  them  very  much  more  useful  in  the  organizations  of  the  Church 
in  their  own  wards.  If  the  bishops  of  the  different  wards  of  the  Church  realized 
what  could  be  done  in  the  education  of  the  young  men  of  their  towns,  and  the 
effect  on  them  that  three  or  four  months  under  the  influence  of  this  Church 
school  would  have,  they  would  leave  their  oxen  in  the  field  and  would  hasten  to 
convert  the  boys  away  from  the  street  corners  and  to  the  Missionary  Course.  If 
the  young  men  of  Israel  could  be  fired  with  an  ambition  to  be  something  in  the 
Church  and  in  the  community,  and  to  know  something  of  the  gospel — to  know 
where  they  came  from  and  where  they  are  going,  we  would  not  have  room  in  the 
Brigham  Young  University  to  hold  all  who  came.  Young  men  who  come  and  get 
a  taste  of  the  good  things  and  get  new  ideals,  are  amazed  that  all  the  young  men  of 
the  Church  are  not  here  with  them.  They  do  not  go  back  after  being  here,  to 
the  flesh  pots  of  the  street  corner,  the  cigarettes,  and  the  carousal.  They  prefer 
to  march  as  officers  and  soldiers  in  the  ranks  of  the  Church.  The  young  men  who 
were  here  this  year  had  nothing  but  praise  for  the  school,  and  with  tears  of  joy 
they  walked  out  into  a  new  light — the  light  of  service  for  their  fellowmen.

I  HE  Department  of  Correlated  Arts  comprises  the  work  in  Fine  Art 
and  Design,  Mechanic  Arts  and  Household  Arts.  The  success  of  the 
department  is  due,  greatly,  to  the  correlation  ideas  that  have  been  es- 
tablished. Generally  students  make  elections  from  more  than  one 
line  of  art.  Students  who  choose  to  major  in  the  Fine  Art  line  will  elect  some 
course  or  courses  in  Mechanic  Arts  or  Domestic  Science ;  those  who  major  in  Do- 
mestic Science  will  elect  courses  in  Design,  Domestic  Art  and  possibly  Fine  Art; 
those  who  major  in  the  Mechanic  Arts,  such  as  Woodwork  or  Ironwork,  will  elect 
from  the  Drafting  and  Design  courses;  and  those  who  major  in  Domestic  Art  will 
of  a  certainty  follow  some  of  the  Domestic  Science  courses  as  well.  The  funda- 
mental collateral  subjects,  such  as  English,  Science,  Mathematics,  History  and  Civ- 
ics, etc.,  are  followed  to  ultimately  give  to  the  maker  a  well-rounded  education. 

The  young  men  and  women  who  have  gone  out  from  the  department  are  mak- 
ing good  in  the  world — they  are  sympathetic,  appreciative  citizens;  they  are  indus- 
trious, congenial  neighbors,  and  every  one  is  especially  professional  on  his  or  her 
chosen  line  of  life  work.  They  are  men  and  women  who  love  their  work  for 
their  work's  sake  and  for  what  it  brings  to  them — apart  from  the  joy  standpoint, 
then  the  better  standpoint — then  the  bread  and  butter  and  cake  standpoint — by 
our  helping  in  the  world  with  a  lift  and  are  doing  it  cheerfully — they  believe  that 
to  eat  the  kernel  they  m.ust  crack  the  shell,  in  other  words,  do  their  righteous  part.

For  seven  years  our  art  professor,  E.  H.  Eastmond,  courted  a  distinguished 
and  rather  coquettish  miss,  who  very  lately  became  his  wife.  During  the  period 
of  courtship  Bert  was  very  lavish  in  his  expenditures  for  boquets  and  candy.  Since 
the  marriage,  however,  he  has  bought  neither  flowers  nor  candy  and  the  business 
of  Startup  and  the  Provo  Floral  has  suffered  accordingly. 

In  view  of  these  facts  the  injured  parties  have  filed  suit  to  have  the  mar- 
riage dissolved  as  a  combination  in  restraint  of  trade.

i  ANY  people  of  the  twentieth  century  wonder  and  even  go  so  far  as 
to  ask.  why  is  music  spoken  of  as  being  sacred,  as  being  a  supplica- 
ton  unto  God.  Is  it  any  wonder  that  such  a  question  could  be  asked 
by  the  uneducated  class,  when  we  hear  nothing  but  rag-time  music 
at  all  of  our  modern  places  of  amusement?  This  condition  among  our  people  is 
deplorable,  and  every  effort  on  our  part  as  individuals  should  be  used  to  put  a 
stamp  of  unfitness  upon  rag-time  music,  and  to  bring  ourselves  and  neighbors 
into  closer  touch  with  music  of  a  higher  class. 

Very  few  people  have  the  ability  to  render  selections  from  Wagner,  Beetho- 
ven. Liszt,  Mozart,  Tanhauser,  Mendelssohn,  etc.,  but  we  all  have  the  ability  to 
enjoy  and  appreciate  these  selections  when  rendered  by  capable  men  and  women. 
Imagine,  if  you  can,  after  hearing  a  selection  from  one  of  the  famous  compos- 
ers, the  joy  that  they  received  while  their  minds  were  in  a  condition  to  write  such 
themes.  We  cannot  all  become  great  composers,  but  we  can  train  ourselves  to 
appreciate  a  high  standard  of  music,  and  to  be  able  to  offer  simple  supplications 
unto  God  with  but  a  very  limited  musical  training. 

The  music  school  of  the  Brigham  Young  University  is  very  well  equipped 
with  musical  instruments  of  all  kinds,  and  under  the  very  able  supervision  of  such 
men  as  Professors  Lund,  Reid,  Johnson,  Gudmundson  and  Sauer,  anyone  desiring 
a  musical  education  can  receive  it  with  but  half  an  effort  upon  his  part,  and  that 
education  will  not  consist  of  a  rag-time  class,  but  of  the  very  highest  grade  obtain- 
able. 

The  above  mentioned  men  are  directing  in  the  school,  a  School  Choir,  Or- 
chestra and  Band,  and  are  ready  at  the  spur  of  the  moment  to  give  to  the  school 
whatever  they  may  desire.  The  choir  always  sings  in  morning  chapel.  One  must 
be  present  to  enjoy  and  appreciate  the  meaning  back  of  this  music  when  rendered. 
The  band  and  orchestra  are  always  on  hand  at  each  school  or  Student  Body  func- 
tion, and  play  those  old-time  melodies  which  make  our  blood  boil  with  enthu- 
siasm. 

For  a  number  of  years  the  choir,  under  Professor  Lund,  has  put  on  an  opera 
each  spring.  These  have  proved  successful  and  educational  from  every  point  of 
view.    We  are  very  sorry  that  we  were  not  favored  with  a  production  this  year. 

Professors  Lund  and  Johnson  aie  working  up  a  male  chorus  and  also  a  ladies* 
chorus,  consisting  of  twenty-five  voices  each;  they  will  render  selections  from 
Wagner.    This  event  promises  to  be  a  great  success. 

Among  the  many  celebrities  of  the  Brigham  Young  University  Alumni  we  find 
a  great  number  of  music  graduates,  and  we  feel  safe  in  saying  that  music  has  done 
as  much  for  the  present  high  standard  of  the  school  as  has  any  other  department.

general  has  been  very  successful  and,  when  compared  with  other  years, 
shows  a  decided  growth  in  the  work  that  has  been  accomplished.  Be- 
sides playing  from  a  score  of  other  favorite  composers,  a  few  of  the 
following  overtures  may  be  mentioned,  "Egmont"  by  Beethoven,  William  Tell, 
Rossini,  Romeo  Juliette,  Bellini,  Poet  and  Peasant  and  La  Burlesque  by  Von  Suppe, 
Mignon  and  Raymond,  A  Thomas,  The  Two  Hussars,  Doppler,  Guy  Bias,  Mendels- 
shon,  Rosamunde,  Schubert,  and  a  good  analytic  rehearsing  of  the  "Tannhauser" 
overture.  The  string  quartet  work  has  given  much  pleasure  and  profit  to  its  mem- 
bers, as  well  as  to  all  who  have  listened  to  its  music.  The  technique  of  each  member 
has  been  developed  to  such  a  standard  that  practicing  from  the  works  of  such  mas- 
ters as  Mozart,  Haydn,  Grieg  and  Vorak  has  been  a  supreme  delight.

HE  organization  known  as  the  Board  of  Control,  is  the  successor  to  the 
old  student  body  executive  committee.  It  consists  of  fifteen  members, 
twelve  students  and  four  representatives  from  the  faculty.  No  one  is 
directly  elected  as  a  member  of  this  board,  but  the  presidency  of  the 
school,  the  physical  director,  the  presidency  and  secretary  of  the  student  body,  and 
the  eight  class  presidents  become  members  through  virtue  of  the  offices  they  hold. 

The  members  of  the  respective  classes  choose  their  presidents  without  restric- 
tion, except  with  the  understanding  that  the  board  will  not  admit  to  membership 
any  person  who  is  not  in  good  standing  in  the  school,  and  who  is  not  carrying  four 
units,  or  their  equivalent,  if  a  High  School  student,  and  twelve  hours,  or  their 
equivalent,  if  a  College  student.  Thus  one-half  of  the  members  are  chosen  by  the 
students  in  an  unrestricted  manner. 

The  presidency  of  the  student  body  and  all  other  student  body  officers  are 
named  by  the  board,  subject  to  the  popular  approval  of  the  students. 

This  board  has  full  control  over  all  student  body  affairs,  and  is  bound  at  pres- 
ent by  no  construction  except  the  honor  rules  over  which  it  exercises  a  large  degree 
of  discretion.  It  meets  in  weekly  session  and  in  special  meetings  whenever  called 
by  the  president  of  the  board,  who  is  the  president  of  the  student  body. 

All  student  body  money  is  appropriated  by  the  board  and  is  expended  by  the 
various  departments  subject  to  the  approval  of  the  president. 

The  policies  of  the  student  body  are  formulated  by  the  boeird  members,  but 
are  always  subject  to  revision  by  the  majority  of  the  students. 

This  year  all  social  functions  have  been  under  the  direction  of  the  board. 

In  short,  to  enumerate  all  the  functions  of  this  body  would  be  to  mention  all 
the  activities  of  the  school. 

There  are  at  present  thirteen  student  body  officers,  including  the  president, 
two  vice  presidents,  treasurer,  secretary  and  historian,  basket  ball  manager,  track 
manager,  baseball  manager,  debating  mzinager,  editor  of  the  "White  and  Blue,"  bus- 
iness manager  of  the  "White  and  Blue,"  wrestling  manager,  and  tennis  manager,  all 
of  whom  are  chosen  by  the  board  of  control,  subject  to  the  approval  of  the  student 
body. 

The  presidency  of  the  student  body  has  in  its  hands  the  general  direction  of 
all  student  body  affairs,  and  each  of  the  officers  manages  directly  all  the  affairs  that 
come  in  his  department. 

Only  the  editor  and  the  business  manager  of  the  "White  and  Blue"  are  paid 
for  their  services.

HEN  the  Student  Body  decided  to  have  a  year  book,  they  appointed, 
through  the  Board  of  Control,  a  committee  composed  of  a  bald-headed 
man,  a  young  Shylo-Jew.  a  Mexican  refugee,  a  fat  man,  a  lean  yan-kee, 
and  one  charming  young  lady.     (She  resigned  shortly  after.) 

Well,  this  combination  began  to  work.  None  had  ever  had  any  experience,  ex- 
cept the  young  lady,  whose  father  took  her  out  of  school,  but  they  all  began  "peg- 
ging" away.  It  was  soon  discovered  that  the  task  was  a  huge  one;  the  fat  man 
puffed,  blew,  and  sweat,  the  bald  one  began  to  grow  no  hair,  the  Mexican  drew  his 
dagger  (you  will  see  him  on  page  38),  the  financier  put  out  "frieze  and  lime"  for  all 
the  stray  "eagles,"  the  yankee  reckoned  we  had  to  have  a  heavier  staff,  "for  if  this 
is  to  be  the  staff  of  life  of  the  year  book,  it's  got  to  be  big  enough  to  nourish  it." 
His  suggestion  was  followed,  and  two  sphndid  artists  and  five  new  departmental 
editors  were  added. 

Every  nook  and  corner  of  the  school  was  penetrated,  every  department  watched 
by  a  spy,  every  secret  sought  out.  Remember,  this  was  to  be  a  Student  Body  affair. 
The  Staff  felt  free  to  call  for  aid  from  every  source.  No  one  refused ;  professors  and 
students  alike  "caught"  the  year  book  spirit,  as  though  it  were  a  happy  contagion, 
and  soon  pictures,  poems,  "write  ups,"  and  the  like  were  pouring  in  from  every  di- 
rection. The  classes  took  hold  of  the  proposition,  worked  up  subscriptions  for  the 
book,  wanted  to  know,  "What  can  we  do  to  help  you?"  You  may  travel  the  big 
world  around,  but  you  will  have  a  task  to  find  a  more  loyal  and  willing  faculty  and 
student  body. 

We  have  borrowed  not  a  thing  for  this  book,  except  one  page  of  decorative 
work.  The  book  is  the  product  of  our  own  students  and  professors,  and  it  is  a  true 
history  of  our  school  year.  To  quote  President  Brimhall,  "It  is  a  sealed  book  to 
the  stranger,"  but  when  silver  streaks  our  hair  and  our  heads  begin  to  bow,  this 
OUR  book,  will  call  up  sweet  memories  of  happy  youth  and  golden  college  days. 

There  may  be  "sins"  of  omission  and  some  of  commission  discovered,  but  our 
sudden  load,  made  heavier  by  inexperience,  represents  our  apology.

HE  dualism  of  the  world  is  reflected  in  all  its  parts.  The  publication 
stands  primarily  for  the  Student  Body;  secondarily  for  the  institu- 
tion. For  the  student  body  it  speaks  of  its  life  and  activities;  for  the 
institution  of  its  aims  and  policies.  The  prime  consideration  of  those 
into  whose  hands  the  editing  of  the  paper  fell  has  been  to  have  the  pages  of  that 
organ  reflect  the  life,  aims,  policies  and  aspirations  of  all :  both  students  and  teach- 
ers.   So  much  for  the  setting. 

The  daily  routine  of  business  in  putting  forth  the  weekly  issues  as  seen  by 
those  "on  the  inside"  presents  indeed  a  double  aspect:  a  "white"  and  a  "blue"  one. 
The  bright  side  we  turn  to  the  public  with  the  finished  product.  There  we  "put 
on"  the  air  of  the  optimist  and  greet  our  fellows  as  if  we  were  each  the  proud 
possessor  of  a  heart  "in  which  there  is  no  guile."  The  "blue"  aspect  of  our  jour- 
nalistic career  begins  with  the  misspelled  word  of  a  teacher's  contribution,  and 
extends  to  the  printer's  oaths  as  his  staples  fail  to  "cinch"  his  job.  To  those  who 
doubt  our  word  of  honor,  a  single  visit  to. cell  No.  16  will  be  sufficient. 

On  the  west,  in  the  center  of  the  dungeon,  is  the  Editor's  desk,  with  its 
pigeon  holes  and  curious  workmanship.  Here  a  sickly,  shrivelled  up  species  of  the 
genus  "homo"  is  seen  nervously  fumbling  over  some  stale  jokes  and  trying  with 
all  his  linguistic  attainments  to  decipher  a  collection  of  manuscripts  written  in 
cuneiform  characters. 

Across  the  cell,  east,  is  the  compound,  complex  box  jointly  owned  by  the 
President  of  the  student  body,  the  business  manager,  debating  manager  and  the 
athletic  managers.  Richards  and  his  lady  assistants  are  here  busily  and  "buzzing- 
ly"  involved  in  the  discussion  of  a  subject  which — matrimonially  speaking — "is  of 
vital  importance."  Dave  seldom  raises  his  head ;  his  ears  are  far  more  keen  than 
his  "seers."  In  addition  to  all  this  complex  situation,  a  hundred  visitors,  includ- 
ing sluffers  and  loafers  are  now  knocking  on  the  door  for  admission. 

In  the  afternoon,  life  in  this  particular  apartment  becomes  terribly  intense. 
All  around,  above  and  below,  rumbling  noises  from  distant  drums,  fifes,  trombones, 
violins  and  pianos  come  thundering  into  our  ears.  In  truth,  our  mental  equilibrium 
is  here  often  disturbed. 

These  are  the  dual  aspects  of  the  scribbler's  life.  These  are  the  "white"  and 
"blue"  phases  of  the  "White  and  Blue"  vocation.  In  the  happy  terminology  of 
Teddy  the  Great,  "ours  has  been  a  strenuous  life."

SgA^  -^  OUR  tongue  is  the  only  edged  tool  that  grows  keener  with  constant 
use."  "The  Pen  is  mightier  than  the  sword,"  but  the  tongue  is  might- 
ier than  the  pen.  At  least,  the  tools  were  sharpened  when  we  encoun- 
tered the  A.  C. — or  when  they  encountered  us ;  so  sharp  indeed  that 
they  cut  their  feet  loose  from  the  pedestal  on  which  they  were  pretending  to 
stand,  and  sent  them  headlong. 

While  our  A.  C.  friends  were  writhing  with  jealousy,  our  chcunpions,  quietl> 
and  unpretentiously,  returned  home  with  the  victory. 

Like  the  battle  of  Bunker  Hill  was  our  case  with  the  University  of  Utah.

During  the  year,  debating  has  been  a  very  important  part  of  the  life  of  the  B. 
Y.  U.  Two  societies,  the  Athena  and  the  La  Junta,  have  been  in  session  once  a 
week.  Their  chief  function  has  been  to  stimulate  interest  in  debating  and  to  de- 
velop in  the  students  the  power  to  present  an  argument  in  a  clear,  logical,  and  con- 
vincing manner. 

Few  of  us  are  gifted  with  the  ability  to  appear  before  an  audience  cind  present 
ideas  without  becoming  embarrassed  and  confused.  This  ability  in  most  cases  must 
be  acquired.  The  debating  societies  have  given  ample  opportunity  for  such  devel- 
opment. With  Strength  and  Personality  at  the  helm,  the  ship,  DEBATING, 
unlike  the  Titanc,  steered  clear  of  icebergs,  despite  the  fact  that  it  was  often  an- 
chored in  cold  regions. 

The  summary  is  something  like  the  story  of  Elijah  and  the  widow. 
There  have  been  great  things  accomplished  in  the  past,  but  the  future  prom- 
ises greater  things. 


A  fellow  failing  makes  us  wondrous  unkind. 
Charity  is  the  sterilized  milk  of  human  kindness. 
One  good  turn  deserves  applause. 
A  gentle  lie  turneth  away  inquiry. 

Found  in  J.  Orion  Berry's  note  book :    One  night  shalt  thou  study  and  on  the 
others  do  all  thy  queening.

AMLET  says  to  Polonius,  "My  Lord,  you  played  once  in  the  Univer- 
sity, you  say."     To  which  Polonius  replies,  "That  I  did  my  lord,  and 
was  accounted  a  good  actor."     These  classic  words  of  Polonius  will 
L.s5^^    be  repeated  more  than  once  by   the   fortunate   "fourteen"   whom  the 


dray  of  events  and  the  irony  of  fate  thrust  before  the  footlights  in  the  drama,  "Col- 
lege Days." 

The  play,  being  the  first  presented  by  the  Student  Body,  was  carefully  se- 
lected, and,  under  the  direction  of  Miss  Beatrice  Camp,  ably  executed.  The  two 
cruel  weeks  consumed  in  the  carving  and  filing  process  were  soon  forgotten.  The 
time  arrived,  and  each  appeared  sparkling  with  life.  The  tension  was  im- 
mense. The  Garden  City — loyal  to  her  sons — in  all  of  her  splendor,  lace  and 
powder,  crowded  to  the  quiet  theatre.  The  curtain  rose  four  times;  two  and  a 
half  hours  passed.  The  throng  filed  out  and  all  was  over.  The  wind  outside 
moaned  and  sighed,  the  snow  covered  the  ground,  and  the  darkness  spoke  still- 
ness. 

The  tribunal  which  is  to  pronounce  the  word  "success"  or  "failure"  has  not 
yet  sat.  The  literature  of  the  time  has  many  allusions  to  it,  and  from  what  we  can 
glean  the  delight  of  the  spectators  must  have  been  intense. 

The  matron  has  this  to  say  of  it  in  her  diary:  "It  is  really  one  of  the  most 
innocent  and  charming  pictures  that  has  come  to  us  of  the  age,  when  so  much  is 
hollow,  pompous  and  seeming."

F  the  contests  held  within  the  school  this  year,  the  fight  for  the  Bar- 
ton and  Blake  medal,  on  Washington's  birthday,  stands  pre-eminent. 
Although  there  were  only  two  who  entered  this  battle  of  words,  the 

___„ orations  given  were,  beyond  doubt,  the  best    in   the    history    of    the 

school,  and  they  showed  that  their  authors  had  anticipated  and  were  prepared  to 
meet  the  keenest  competition. 

Both  of  the  speakers  deserve  honor,  but  there  was  only  one  medal  to  be 
given;  a  decision  had  to  be  made,  and,  of  course,  no  matter  how  good  two  things 
may  be,  one  is  always  the  better,  and  so,  although  the  work  of  Mr.  Dean  Brimhall 
was  exceptionally  fine,  it  fell  below  the  excellence  of  the  young  Samoan's,  and  Mr. 
Roy  Purcell  became  the  victor  of  the  field.  But  the  vanquished  had  no  cause  for 
sorrow ;  there  is  honor  even  in  defeat  when  our  foe  is  great.

HE  College  Club  is  a  society  to  which  every  college  student  belongs 
whether  he  has  paid  his  club  fee  or  not.  It  had  its  beginning  long 
before  any  of  its  present  members  were  heard  of,  and  came  down  to 
us  as  a  kind  of  legacy,  the  function  of  which  was  entirely  unknown. 
True  it  had  a  constitution,  but  that  document  contained  only  a  vague  hint  as  to 
the  purpose  of  the  organization,  and  the  veterans  of  the  school  said  that,  within 
their  time,  the  society  had  never  done  anything  except  hold  its  semi-annual  elec- 
tions; although,  of  course,  some  things  may  have  been  lost  to  their  memories. 

But  whatever  the  history  of  the  club  may  have  been,  does  not  concern  us 
now.  The  object  of  this  article  is  to  tell  what  the  society  has  done  since  school 
commenced  last  fall — since  it  elected  Mr.  Chas.  Schwencke  to  the  chair  with  Miss 
Glenn  Johnson  and  Mr.  John  G.  Gubler  as  vice  presidents,  and  conferred  upon 
Mr.  Kelley  the  office  of  secretary  and  treasurer.  Since  that  time  College  Club  has 
been  successful  in  all  its  undetakings — except  the  collecting  of  that  dollar  as- 
sessment, and  it  still  has  hopes  of  accomplishing  even  that. 

The  club  is  in  rcedity  the  student-body  of  the  college,  and  as  such  its  special 
function  is  the  controlling  of  the  student-body  activities,  such  as  socials,  etc. ;  but 
aside  from  this  it  has  been  the  object  of  the  club  to  bring  to  the  students  the  best 
speakers  of  the  state,  and  those  who  have  attended  its  meetings  know  that  in  this 
regard  it  has  been  successful.  There  certainly  have  been  some  very  enjoyable  lec- 
tures held  in  the  college  this  winter. 

Of  the  parties  given  by  the  society,  two  especially,  will  be  remembered:  the 
entertaining  of  the  club  by  Miss  Gleen  Johnson  at  her  home  on  December  17th, 
and  the  college  ball  given  in  the  Mozart  January  24th. 

The  second  election  of  College  Club  was  held  February  3rd,  1913.  Mr. 
Kenneth  Parkinson  was  chosen  president,  and  Miss  Merline  Roylance  and  Miss 
Marian  Andelin  were  given  the  honors  of  first  and  second  vice  presidents  respec- 
tively. Mr.  B.  Y.  Baird  was  the  successful  candidate  for  secretary  and  treasurer. 
By  the  new  executive  there  remain  two  things  to  be  accomplished — the  collect- 
ing of  the  club  fee  and  the  completing  of  the  tennis  court  on  Temple  hill.  Both 
are  practically  achieved.

FTER  several  weeks  of  impatient  waiting  we  were  at  last  blessed  with 
a  fine  day,  on  Wednesday,  April  16th,  and  while  the  little  "forget-me- 
nots  of  the  angels"  were  still  twinkling  on  that  beautiful  morn,  slowly 
one  by  one  the  faculty  members  could  be  seen  feeling  their  way  through 
the  darkness  toward  the  bosom  of  the  mountain,  where  lies  the  huge 
Y,  a  S5mibol  of  the  patriotism,  activity,  and  honor  of  the  students  of  the 
B.  Y.  U.  past,  present,  and  future.  Then  followed  a  loyal  band  of  fel- 
lows, each  laden  with  a  goodly  portion  of  lime  or  cement,  and  by  7 
o'clock  almost  an  unbroken  line  of  men  could  be  seen  extending  from 
the  foot  of  the  mountain  to  the  great  Y,  far  up  the  lofty  steep. 

Once  at  the  side  of  the  old  letter  we  immediately  began  her  reno- 
vation. Up  the  steep  mountain  side  into  the  shade  of  the  big  cliffs  darted 
the  wiry  "Freshies,"  who  soon  returned,  bearing  precious  sacks  of  snow, 
which  the  Juniors  converted  into  water  with  heat  made  by  wood  lugged 
in  by  the  noble  "Sophs."  In  the  meantime,  the  industrious  faculty 
chaps  banished  all  foreign  material  from  Y's  face,  and  applied  a  new 
coat  of  powder  to  her  blistered  cheeks,  while  a  group  of  Seniors  sat 
peacefully  by  and  watched  a  few  of  their  more  ambitious  classmates, 
assisted  by  a  bunch  of  pleasant  Freshmen,  put  a  cement  poultice  of 
1000  square  feet  on  old  Y's  chin.  The  sand  was  carried  by  the  High 
School  lads  who  did  their  work  well. 

About  2  o'clock  the  monstrous  emblem  was  shining  in  a  new  dress 
of  white,  and  the  boys  started  a  mad  charge  down  the  hill.  Order  could 
not  be  restored  until  the  leaders  struck  the  school  lawn  and  found  the 
girls  smilingly  waiting  to  administer  to  the  fellows'  badly  warped  appe- 
tites. Oh !  how  we  did  eat  while  the  fair  ones  gently  cooed  and  refilled 
our  plates  with  beans,  sandwiches,  cake,  etc.,  etc.  No  man  departed 
hungry,  and  few  left  without  smiling. 

There  were  some  "sluffers,"  but  they  belonged  to  freak  classes 
known  as  "muckrakers,"  imbeciles,  and  dead  heads.  Pity  was  expressed 
on  all  sides  for  these  unfortunates  who  knew  not  what  they  did. 

Never  did  a  better  school  spirit  prevail,  and  long  may  the  old  Y  be 
greeted  with  such  enthusiasm  and  love.

SCENES  ON    y-DAY

F^miMl^ir^^  W)mj 


HE  old  Alma  Mater  has  seen  thirty-seven  birthdays,  but  none  more  fit- 
tingly remembered  than  the  last  one.    Pluvius  was  hibernating,  and  old 
Sol,  remembering  the  occasion,  did  himself  proud.    It  was  one  of  those 
autumn  days  when  the  valley  ozone  penetrates  one  with  the  glad-to- 
be-alive  spirit. 

The  morning  pageant  surpassed  Founders'  Day  traditions.  It  really  was  a 
splendid  showing,  made  particularly  so  by  the  presence  of  two  beautiful  floats. 
New  ribbons,  arm-bands,  brass  bands,  pennants  and  specially  creased  trousers  were 
much  in  evidence,  as  were  also  the  basso  profundo  cheers  of  the  freshmen,  whose 
voices  were  then  hardly  accustomed  to  such  loquacious  exuberance.  It  was  good 
to  have  ears,  however. 

At  College  Hall  an  exceptional  service  was  provided.  The  string  quartette  was 
in  splendid  form,  and  rendered  several  selections  with  usual  finesse ;  the  clear  song 
of  the  violins  softened  by  the  mellowness  of  the  cello,  caused  many  an  eye  to 
moisten. 

The  address  of  the  President  was  reminiscent  in  nature,  and  in  perfect  harmony 
with  the  occasion. 

Prof.  Alice  Reynolds,  the  orator  of  the  day,  took  as  her  theme  "The  Value  ot 
Having  the  Best,"  and  beautifully  told  how  the  rendition  of  Wagner's  "Tann- 
hauser,"  by  the  College  Choir,  had  enriched  her  life. 

Uncle  Jesse,  as  Vice  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  was  then  given  the 
chair,  and  he  presided  with  usual  dignity. 

After  splendid  talks  by  all  visiting  Board  members,  Brother  Knight  deliverea 
one  of  his  characteristic  utterances  on  practical  education.  The  ability  of  our  dear 
old  friend  to  clothe  extraordinary  ideas  in  humble  expressions  is  remarkable.  No 
one  snores  or  scores  when  our  Vice  President  speaks. 

After  Founders'  Day  dinner  the  scenes  were  shifted  to  the  campus,  where  the 
respective  classes  vied  with  one  another  in  racing,  jumping,  and  shot-putting.  Re- 
markable records  were  made  in  the  teeth-gritting,  grimace-making,  and  grunt-emit- 
ting subdivision  of  these  diversions,  otherwise,  the  greenness  of  the  participants 
(just  one  week  in  school)  was  a  little  in  evidence. 

The  winners  of  the  day's  honors  were  the  lucky  13's  H.  S. 

After  the  racing,  a  "rope  rush"  was  scheduled.  The  overall  garbed  third-years 
and  the  cravatless  prospective  graduates  came  together  with  a  mighty  concussion 
in  an  effort  to  lay  hands  on  some  thirteen  centimeters  of  Manila  hemp,  that  had 
once  seen  service  as  a  halter. 

It  having  been  some  time  since  taking  dinner,  both  factions  immediately  pro- 
ceeded to  eat  dust,  ears,  shirt-tails,  and  cuticle.  Fond  embraces  were  executed 
without  embarrassment. 

Overalls  took  on  sheath-gown  appearance,  suspenders  departed  thence,  and 
that  wasn't  all  that  happened.  When  the  air  cleared  it  was  seen  that  the  14's  had 
won  by  two  hands. 

All  in  all,  the  day  was  one  to  be  remembered.  Both  during  the  morning  at 
the  devotional  service,  as  also  during  the  fun,  in  the  afternoon,  the  friendliest 
spirit  prevailed.    Why  does  Founders'  Day,  like  Christmas,  come  but  once  a  year?

NE  can  as  easily  imagine  Provo  without  Mount  Timpanogos  as  this 
school  without  one  day  given  exclusively  to  tlie  "better-half."  Yet 
for  twenty-three  years  the  institution  was  without  a  girls'  organiza- 
tion. Oh,  the  girls  did  things — such  as  accidentally  (?)  falling  into  a 
culvert  while  the  boys  were  digging  the  sewer  trench  in  1901;  in- 
sisting on  sandwiching  the  sagebrush  grubbers  on  the  campus,  etc., 
but  until  the  fall  of  1902,  when  our  splendid  friend  Miss  Reynolds  in- 
stituted "Girls'  Day,"  we  were  no  better  off  than  the  boys.  "Girls' 
Day,"  at  first,  was  just  for  the  girls,  and  the  party  was  a  real  "hen 
party."  The  boys  in  those  days  did  not  have  the  happy  privilege  of  being  "chased" 
by  a  handsome  miss  and  tangled  into  accepting  an  invitation  that  possibly  might 
have  meant  a  "stiddy" — even  a  "weddin'."  But  the  all-consuming  curiosity  that 
man  is  heir  to,  got  the  better  of  the  heroic  sex,  and  while  the  party  of  1904  was  in 
progress,  about  forty  popular  Pandoras  climbed  into  College  Hall  "to  see,  to  peek, 
perhaps  e'en  to  hear"  what  was  going  on  in  the  gym.  .  Two  very  wise  maidens, 
however,  quietly  left  the  gym  and  turned  on  the  lights  in  College  Hall,  exposing 
the  disconcerted  ones,  who  tried  to  hide  their  shame  by  crawling  under  the  seats. 
The  following  year,  they  went  one  step  farther  than  "peeking,"  and  dressed  one 
of  their  most  popular  slender  blondes  in  dainty  attire  and  curly  hair  and  sent  "her" 
to  the  party.  It  really  worked,  too — for  about  an  hour,  but  the  girls  decided  it 
was  impossible  to  have  a  party  without  being  bothered  with  "fellows,"  so  on  May 
5,  1905,  the  first  Girls'  ball  was  given.  The  net  proceeds  were  $166.00,  so  it  must 
have  been  a  huge  success. 

It  was  in  the  year  1904-5  that  the  Girls'  Rest  Room  was  founded  and  named 
by  Miss  Reynolds.  Ours  was  the  first  real  rest  room  in  the  state.  The  other 
schools  who  have  followed  our  example  have  also  called  their  rooms  by  the  same 
name.  The  beautiful  Navajo  rugs  on  the  floor  were  a  gift  from  twenty  boys  of 
the  school  that  same  year.  As  a  result  of  the  girls'  party  this  year  an  excellent 
leather  couch  has  been  added  to  our  Rest  Room. 

The  boys  should  begin  now  to  sue  for  an  invitation  to  our  party  next  year,  as 
the  new  gjonnasium  will  be  finished ;  besides,  if  they  live  far  enough  away  they 
insyC?)  gst  a  street  car  ride  thrown  in.

|N  the  early  fall  of  1912,  soon  after  the  school  was  grinding,  the  girls  of  this  institu- 
tion were  called  into  a  private  meeting  presided  over  by  members  of  the  faculty. 
The  good  purpose  of  this  meeting  was  to  instruct  the  girls  in  regard  to  their  moral 
standing,  emphasizing  with  whom  and  when  they  should  attend  dances  or  picture 
shows.  After  the  victorious  sermon  on  conduct  the  girls,  with  a  most  distinguish- 
ing effort,  resolved  that  they  would  nevermore,  without  a  BOY,  attend  another 
dance.     This  did  not  include  picture  shows. 

Well!  Oh,  my!  But  alas,  poor  Frank  Winn  was  in  the  library  and  heard  all  the  above  pro- 
ceedings.    The  girls  said  their  little  scheme  would  have  worked  all  right,  but  for  sneak  Winn. 

The  following  Friday  a  number  of  very  worthy  gentlemen  went,  as  usual,  to  the  Mozart,  with- 
out their  lady  escorts,  and  there  enjoyed  the  dance,  participating  in  every  set  (the  set  in  the 
corner). 

Mr.  Ashton  sent  his  maid-servants  to  the  Barton  and  Blake  Furniture  store  for  extra  chairs 
to  accommodate  the  B.  Y.  U.  Suffragettes  at  the  picture  show.  From  the  pictures  they  marched  to 
Startup's  and  enjoyed  the  usual  refreshments,  to  which  they  were  accustomed  after  the  dance. 
The  soured  bunch  of  stags  went  from  the  Mozart  and  gave  the  girls  a  very  hearty  welcome?  Well, 
I  guess  nit. 

The  police  force  was  called,  and  under  its  direction  the  noble  soldiers  of  our  school  counter- 
marched to  our  educational  factory,  where  they  gave  a  rousing  yell  for  their  superiors  and  guar- 
dians (THE  POLICE  FORCE). 

The  girls  seemed  to  be  more  than  pleased  with  their  first  night  out,  and  immediately  planned 
to  abolish  mere  man  from  their  society.  They  exercised  woman  suffrage  to  its  utmost,  donned 
pants,  and  resolved  to  give  the  boys  an  (un)royal  welcome.  Several  weeks  elapsed.  Finding 
themselves  alone,  they  determined  to  make  the  best  of  their  results.  Choosing  a  balmy  evening 
(when  their  desires  ran  more  toward  strolling,  but  could  not  be  accomplished  alone)  they  planned 
a  popcorn   shower,  which  proved  to  be  an   EMINENT  SUCCESS,  AS  IT  WERE. 

Presently  the  situation  became  so  acute  that  it  became  necessary  to  bridle  this  rampant 
female  tyranny,  but  how  should  this  voluminous  flow  of  sisterly  ambition  be  stemmed  without 
causing  the  soft  featured  warriorettes  to  charge  the  stags  with  uncomely  tactics. 

Finally  they  were  met  on  their  own  ground.  The  tongue  was  used  as  the  only  weapon.  They 
were  beguiled  into  rescinding  their  declaration  of  celibacy  by  a  group  of  smihng,  yet  wily,  he- 
human  beings  who  were  descendants  of  Adam,  but  not  so  credulous. 

The  irritated  beauties  went  alone  to  a  dance  arranged  by  the  fellows,  and  thus  broke  their  much- 
vaunted  vow.  Thev  now  recognize  the  diplomatic  proceedings  of  the  sterner  sex  to  excel  all  fee- 
ble female  efforts,  and  say  they  will  never  more  take  action  without  first  consulting  their  sagacious 
male  friends.

HE  Physical  Training  Department  is  off  the  mark  and  pounding  the 
cinders  hard,  but  it  has  not  struck  its  stride  yet.  When  it  does  get 
going  with  every  nerve  and  fibre,  limb  and  muscle  finely  adjusted  and 
working  in  beautiful  unison,  the  great  old  Brigham  Young  University, 
students  and  faculty  alike,  will  present  a  different  front — ^yes,  and 
a  different  back.  Then  our  department  will  embrace  the  entire  school  and 
cease  to  be  a  department,  and  will  become  an  aspect  of  the  student  and  fac- 
ulty life.  Then  we  shall  have  a  new  gymnasium  equipped  for  hundreds,  a  new 
swimming  pool,  indoor  hand-ball  courts,  bowling  alleys,  and  volley-ball  spaces. 
Then  our  campus  and  fields  will  be  covered  with  baseball  and  play  ground  ball 
diamonds,  croquet  grounds,  and  tennis  courts.  Then  when  the  successful  school 
day  is  over — when  mathematical  problems  are  solved,  literary  treasures  stored 
in  healthy  brains;  when  new  facts  in  psychology  and  philosophy  are  learned, when 
the  daily  mite  of  proficiency  in  commerce,  agriculture,  carpentry,  blacksmithing, 
art,  domestic  science  is  acquired;  when  the  students  have  finished  their  fascinat- 
ing laboratory  work  in  physics  and  chemistry,  then,  in  the  late  afternoon  hour,  the 
whole  school  will  come  out  in  the  open  and  engage  in  healthful  play,  washing  out 
the  mental  fatigue,  and  fixing  permanently  with  good,  fresh,  red  blood  the  ac- 
quired truths  of  the  day. 

The  tennis  courts  and  fields  will  be  spotted  white  with  boys  and  girls  in  vigor- 
ous exercise.  The  athletic  fields  will  be  covered  with  brawny  athletes  matching 
their  superior  powers  in  fierce  but  fair  combat.  There  the  individual  star  will  be 
submerged  in  a  veritable  milky  way  of  athletic  prowess.  And  when  evening  drives 
this  happy  throng  into  their  rooms,  they  will  be  ready  for  study  of  the  most 
profitable  kind.     This  is  our  dream  of  the  future,  and  it  will  be  realized.

ASKETBALL  has  always  been  a  major  sport  at  the  B.  Y.  U. 
This  season's  work  began  with  a  rousing  good  spirit.  The  material 
selected  showed  the  making  of  a  winning  team,  and  another  banner  year 
for  the  B.  Y.  U. 

Our  first  lineup,  with  Giant  Richards  at  center,  was  almost  a  per- 
fect machine.  The  boys  worked  as  a  unit,  and  made  a  wonderful  show- 
ing in  their  clever  passing  and  team  work.    Their  record  beating  scores, 
piled  up  on  the  rural  teams  in  the  early  part  of  the  season,  about  con- 
vinced every  ball  fan  that  the  "Y"  boys  would  be  the  invincible  five. 
The  scores  of  the  following  games  showed  them  to  be  a  strong  team. 
Springville  High  vs.  B.  Y.  U.,  6-44.      Payson  City  vs.  B.  Y.  U.,  28-76. 
Weber  Academy  vs.  B.  Y.  U.,  34-48.       L.  D.  S.  vs.  B.  Y.  U..  19-44. 
Spanish  Fork  vs.  B.  Y.  U.,  16-46.  Old  Stars  vs.  B.  Y.  U.,  27-61 

Burlington  vs.  B.  Y.  U.,  17-49. 

The  big  five  were  never  defeated  until  they  met  the  old  veterans 
from  the  U.  of  U.  on  our  own  floor.  Here  we  learned  how  to  be  good 
loosers  as  we  had  been  good  victors. 

But  there  was  to  be  a  return  game.  On  the  22nd  of  February  our 
boys,  in  splendid  trim,  accompanied  by  a  trainload  of  loyal  students 
waving  the  White  and  Blue,  met  the  U.  of  U.  at  the  Deseret  Gym.  The 
hall  was  filled  to  overflowing ;  the  cheers  of  the  rooters  were  deafening 
— it  was  a  sight  to  behold.  For  an  hour  the  suspense  grew.  Wait !  At 
the  close  of  the  second  half  the  score  was  26-26.  The  tie  was  played  off 
— the  Crimsons  were  fortunate — but  the  heroic  spirit  of  our  boys  and  of 
the  Student  Body  will  carry  us  to  victory  in  the  future.

the  Brigham  Young  University  appropriated  practically  all  of  the  field  events,  there 
went  up  in  the  stadium  at  Stockholm  an  American  "tiger"  that  made  the  very  Norse- 
men rattle  their  bones  and  turn  over.  "What's  that?"  ventured  one  of  those  ancient  brethren,  as 
he  was  jostled  about  in  his  cavern,  "is  that  an  earthquake?"  "No,"  replied  a  neighboring  cadaver, 
who  had  traveled  extensively,  "that  is  the  War  Cry  of  those  American  savages." 

In  the  stadium  above,  the  Europeans  were  fairly  deafened  by  the  fervid  exuberance  of  three 
thousand  college  throats.  Epiglottis  or  no  epiglottis;  pharynx  or  no  pharynx,  Adam's  apple  or  no 
Adam's  apple,   out  these   ripping  "rahs"  must  come. 

The  world's  greatest  athletes  were  assembled  in  that  stadium.  The  royalty  of  Europe  with 
thirty  thousand  enthusiasts  packed  the  stands;  Englishmen  praying  for  the  English,  the  Swedes  for 
the  Swedes,  and  the  Americans  for  the  bearers  of  the  Stars  and  Stripes. 

Into  this  glorious  assemblage  a  Utah  boy  found  his  way.  His  bearinp.  while  not  haughty,  was 
erect.  Utah's  valley  tan  and  his  splendid  physique  caused  him  to  appear  to  advantage  in  his 
jumping  togs.  He  was  pitted  against  fifty  of  the  world's  best;  the  champion,  himself,  was  among 
them.  One  by  one.  as  the  jumping  grew  upward,  these  worthies  fell  out.  leaving,  finally,  the  great 
Horine,  Lieske,  the  German,  and  Richards  of  the  B.  Y.  U.  Horine  had  noticed  the  naturalness  of 
Richards'  spring,  and  all  of  a  sudden  developed  a  peculiar  longing  for  San  Francisco.  It  was  at 
this  juncture  that  this  great  jumper  had  to  fall  out,  leaving  the  B.  Y.  U.  to  battle  for  the  Stars  and 
Stripes.  Lieske  cleared,  and  twice  Richards  knocked  the  bar  dowm;  a  third  trial,  however,  saw  him 
over,  with  inches  to  spare.  The  bar  was  raised  and  the  German  failed  to  clear.  It  was  at  this  point 
that  the  young  Utahn  was  under  his  greatest  strain.  The  honor  of  his  country,  his  state,  and  his 
Alma  Mater  were  in  his  custody  and  visions  of  this  responsibility  for  a  moment  numbed  him. 

Then,  after  warming  up  slightly,  he  summoned  his  powers,  and  reinforcing  them  with  a  liberal 
portion  of  that  old,  determined,  B.  Y.  U.  spirit,  he  jumped.  The  official  photographs  show  a  mar- 
gin of  over  two  inches,  and  a  grimace  that  would  shade  Roosevelt's.  When  the  talented  Lieske 
saw  Richards'  spring  he  suddenly  remembered  some  pressing  business  that  was  pending  in  Berlin. 
After  this  event,  the  great  German  jumper  could  not  even  get  his  knees  up  to  the  bar. 

Throughout  the  entire  journey  our  jumper  was  treated  royally,  shaking  hands  with  monarchs 
and  being  given  the  freedom  of  European  cities  were  among  the  every-day  occurrences.  In  New 
York  and  Boston,  there  were  demonstrations  of  the  American  sort.  Governors  and  mayors  -/ied 
with  one  another  in  their  efforts  to  extend  a  rousing  welcome. 

Richard's  real  calibre  was  indicated  all  along  the  line.  Money  offers  of  all  kinds  were  made  him 
in  an  eflfort  to  secure  his  services.  A  tobacco  company  wanted  his  picture  for  advertising  pur- 
poses, and  some  schools  offered  him  special  privileges  with  mercenary  advantages,  but  he  turned 
the  whole  bunch  down.  ' 

It  was  in  the  little  town  of  Helper  on  the  way  home,  that  he  also  showed  the  real  man  in  him. 
Director  Roberts,  who  had  gone  out  to  meet  Richards,  was  endeavoring  to  locate  him  when  the 
Director  suddenly  felt  himself  warmly  embraced  by  arms  that  were  certainly  not  feminine.  Rich- 
ards then  acknowledged  the  role  that  Director  Roberts  had  played  in  hoisting  the  White  and  Blue 
and  the  Red  White  and  Blue  at  Stockholm. 

All  Provo  was  at  the  station  as  the  jumper  arrived.  A  mile  of  autos.  lavishly  decorated,  tried 
to  express  the  city's  appreciation. 

A  year  later  Richards  participated  in  a  meet  at  Franklin  Field,  Philadelphia,  and  exhibited 
the  same  prowess. 

The  records  show. 

Richards  (Brigham  Young  University),  First. 

Yale  and  Harvard.  Tie  for  Second. 

America,  Utah,  Provo,  and  the  B.  Y.  U.  are  richer  for  Richards.

Silica !?" 


INCE  baseball  has  been  put  on  a  firm  financial  basis,  it  has  prospered 
greatly,  and  has  become  one  of  the  major  sports  of  the  school.  It 
has  been  the  means  of  widely  advertising  our  school,  and  has  brought 
some  honors  to  it.  This  year  the  prospects  are  bright.  Five  of  the 
old  men  are  back,  and  four  good  substitutes  have  been  found.  Johnson  is  out 
of  the  game,  but  his  position  as  pitcher  is  pretty  well  filled  by  Carrick  and  Baird. 
The  men  are  all  in  good  condition,  and  expect  some  brilliant  victories. 

We  regret  that  the  coming  records  cannot  be  tabulated,  but  since  we  shedl 
have  a  year  book  next  year  that  will  record  the  events,  we  shall  be  content  to 
wait  for  it. 


I F  you  could  spend  an  hour  some  afternoon  at  the  track,  and  see  the 
splendid  work  done  there,  you  would  get  a  glimpse  of  the  good  that 
such  work  is  doing.  But  aside  from  that  you  would  be  wonderfully 
entertained.  You  would  see  Billy  Baird  with  his  associates,  Jenkins, 
Jones,  and  Jakman,  sprint;  Brimhall,  Eyre,  and  Higgins  in  the  long;  Jenkins, 
Daniels,  and  Parkinson  on  the  hurdles;  with  Hales  running  like  a  whirlwind  the 
whole  distance  of  a  mile.  Then  you  would  see  Richards  jump  higher  than  any  man 
in  the  world  can  jump. 

These  exercises,  and  many  more,  have  done  much  for  our  school,  since  it  pro- 
vides the  splendid  campus  we  now  enjoy.  The  spirit  of  friendly  rivalry,  the  loy- 
alty to  Alma  Mater,  the  deep  love  for  the  institution,  are  elements  the  track  has 
helped  to  develop.     It  has  also  given  us  world-wide  recognition.

Tenuis  at  the  B.  Yo  U- 


ENNIS  may  never  become  the  game  for  grand-stand  plays  that  some 
of  the  other  games  have  become,  but  it  is  fast  forging  to  the  front  as 
a  favorite  with  the  majority  of  students  who  need  light  exercise. 
Its  advantage  lies  in  the  mildness  of  its  demands  upon  the  whole  sys- 
tem, but  particularly  in  exercising  proper  poise  and  quick  judgment.  Tennis  af- 
fords everything  in  physical  recreation — minus  the  brutal. 

It  is  pleasing  to  the  tennis  fans  to  see  the  interest  taken  in  the  game  this 
year,  and  while  many  are  playing  for  the  first  time,  their  pleasure  has  grown  to 
be  intense  in  a  game  so  clean,  a  game  that  affords  no  opportunity  for  coarse  con- 
duct or  profane  language. 

Our  school  was  the  first  to  list  tennis  with  other  athletic  activities,  and  has 
carried  off  intercollegiate  laurels  the  past  two  seasons. 

Our  star  player,  "Milt"  Fletcher,  is  "doing"  Africa  just  now,  and  new  men 
will  have  to  "fight  it  out"  with  the  state  schools.  But  some  good  material  is 
developing  in  the  try-outs,  and  the  yearly  tournament  will  see  us  making  a  splen- 
did showing.

WRESTLING  TEAM 


HE  past  year  has  been  the  most  successful  year  for  wrestUng  that  we 
have  ever  had.  It  is  the  first  year  that  we  have  had  competition; 
L\/-  m.'^t"^  therefore  the  first  time  that  the  Student  Body  has  recognized  it  as  one 
03^::=:^^  of  its  sports.  The  U.  of  U.,  we  are  sorry  to  say,  could  not  find  time  to 
come  down  to  Provo  to  meet  our  team,  after  we  agreed  to  pay  all  of  their  expenses. 

The  only  competition  we  were  able  to  get  this  year  was  a  dual  meet  with  the 
A.  C.  U.  They  have  a  strong  team  which  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  they  won  five 
out  of  six  matches  in  their  meet  with  the  B.  Y.  C,  before  they  met  our  team. 

The  Aggies  came  to  Provo  expecting  to  scoop  the  B.  Y.  U.  bunch,  but  they 
were  very  much  surprised  when  they  met  our  husky  little  team.  Our  fellows 
simply  had  them  outclassed  at  every  stage  of  the  game.  Although  Harris,  our 
feather-weight,  was  sick  and  in  no  shape  to  wrestle,  the  A.  C.  man  was  never 
master  until  the  last  twenty  seconds.  Teeples,  our  middle-weight,  had  everything 
his  way  until  he  caught  his  foot  in  the  carpet,  which  tripped  him,  causing  him  to 
fall  on  his  head,  stunning  him  for  several  seconds.  The  A.  C.  man  fell  on  top  and 
got  the  fall.    The  result  was  a  tie,  each  securing  three  matches. 

There  were  only  three  that  could  enter  from  the  B.  Y.  U.,  but  the  result  was 
two  medals. 

In  addition  to  this  a  class  series  was  "pulled  off."  There  were  four  classes 
that  had  come  up  to  the  finals,  each,  having  lost  one  meet.  However,  the  class  of 
1915  came  out  victorious,  after  a  hard  and  close  fight.

N  Saturday,  May  3,  the  Y  track  boys  made  a  dashing  trip  to  the 
metropolis,  in  autos,  to  give  the  muscle  "wigglers"  a  rub,  on  the 
track  and  field.  The  result  was  slightly  in  favor  of  the  gentlemen  of 
the  State  dispensary  of  learning.  The  trip  was  made  in  autos  fur- 
nished by  some  of  Provo's  leading  citizens.  These  generous  people  furnished 
their  cars  without  expense,  and  thus  helped  the  Student  Body  to  save  over  $100. 
The  men  extending  this  courtesy  were:  W.  D.  Roberts,  J.  F.  Farrer,  Thos. 
Taylor,  Len  Scofield,  President  G.  H.  Brimhall,  Fera  Decker,  J.  William  Knight, 
Andrew  Knudsen.  Others  offered  their  services,  but  it  was  unnecessary  to  have 
more  cars.  The  students  appreciate  this  favor,  and  will  return  the  kindness  in 
any  way  they  can. 

The  meet  went  along  well,  but  our  boys  fell  short  in  the  distances.  Hciles 
showed  up  well  in  the  mile,  but  lost  to  more  experienced  men.  Richards  was,  as 
usual,  the  star,  and  took  23  points.  Will  Baird,  Budge  Daniels,  Henry  Jones, 
Barkdull  and  Eyre  also  did  good  work. 

We  were  beaten,  but  we'll  loom  up  well  in  the  State  meet.

Annual  Track  and  Field  Meet 


HE  Annual  Track  and  Field  Meet  and  Relay  Carnival  for  1913  was  a 

hummer.     The  day  was  bright,  almost  hot,  though  it  was  but  the  26th 

of  April.     The  crowds  were  unusually   large,   and   their   enthusiasm 

was  equalled  only  by  their  abundant  good  nature.    The  track  was  in 

fine  shape,  while  the  athletes,  well — some  of  them  "couldn't  be  beat." 

The  officials  kept  things  moving  like  the  proverbial  "clock  work,"  only  the 
speed  with  which  they  rushed  off  the  different  events  would  have  left  far  in  the 
rear  the  fastest  clock  in  town. 

Almost  a  hundred  B.  Y.  U.  huskies  had  been  carefully  groomed  for  the  occa- 
sion, and  as  the  hour  for  action  approached,  they  were  restlessly  champing  the 
bits.  Besides  these,  there  were  present,  with  no  less  eagerness,  though  mayhap 
with  more  timidity,  worthy  representatives  of  the  Provo  City  Schools  and  of  the 
leading  High  Schools  of  the  county.  And  every  class  and  every  school  had  its 
loyal  supporters,  most  of  whom  had  brought  along  an  extra  pair  of  lungs  for  the 
occasion.  The  fellows  yelled  their  encouragement  and  approval  till  all  their  lungs 
were  sore,  while  the  girls  fluttered  their  brightest  ribbons  and  smiled  their  sweet- 
est smiles  (and  screamed  a  little)  to  cheer  on  the  sun. burned  lads  straining  and 
panting  for  glory  on  the  cinder  path  below.  When  the  girls'  relay  was  run,  the 
officials  had  to  swear  in  a  hundred  deputies  to  keep  back  the  crowd — of  boys. 

The  morning  events,  the  shot,  hammer,  and  discus  throws,  were  only  for  a 
warming-up  effect,  yet  the  spirit  of  rivalry  was  just  as  marked  as  in  the  finals; 
and  the  results  gave  the  "Freshies"  a  narrow  lead  which  they  managed  in  a 
fierce  struggle  to  maintain  over  their  determined  rivals,  the  "Unlucky  13's"  till  the 
final  event,  when  the  "Uuluckies"  nosed  ahead  and  won  the  interclass  champion- 
ship of  the  meet. 

While  no  world's  records  were  broken,  some  surprises  were  sprung,  chief  of 
which  was  Henry  (Tweed)  Jones'  (H.  S.  15)  capture  of  four  "firsts."  Wayne 
Hales  won  the  mile  event  in  a  manner  that  gives  promise  of  a  brilliant  future  for 
him  and  the  school  in  the  long  races.  Others  who  pounded  out  first  honors  at  the 
tape  were  Halverson,  H.  Jenkins,  Eyre,  Duke  and  Haymond.  Other  first  place 
winners  were  Pack,  Adams,  and  Simmons. 

Herculean  heavers  of  the  shot  and  discus  merited  their  share  of  the  honors, 
and  the  spring-heeled  winners  of  the  flat  and  tall  jumps  drew  admiring  exclama- 
tions from  the  crowd;  but  the  snappy  short  sprints,  and  the  nerve  and  muscle- 
straining  relays  were  the  events  that  brought  the  crowd  to  its  feet  and  turned 
it  into  a  hilarious  multitude.  And  no  wonder !  For  not  only  were  all  the  events 
hotly  contested  to  the  very  tape,  but  the  speed  displayed  by  a  large  number  of 
the  light-footed  winners  was  such  as  to  make  the  wing-footed  Mercury  tremble  for 
his  future  laurels. 

The  presence  and  prowess  of  the  county  schools  added  much  to  the  success 
of  the  day,  and  we  say  "Come  again"  in  the  same  capacity  or,  better  still,  join  the 
big  school  and  win  and  wear  a  Y.

N  March  6th,  7th,  and  8th,  the  University  was  honored  with  the  pres- 
ence of  many  visitors  from  all  parts  of  the  State,  who  had  come  to  take 
part  in  the  annual  State  High  School  Basketball  Tournament.  The 
visitors  were  a  trifle  strange  and  awkward  in  their  movements  about  the 
campus.  This  was  a  result  of  their  previous  visits  to  Salt  Lake  City, 
where  the  tournament  has  been  heretofore  held.  Before  the  boys  and 
girls  left  Provo,  they  felt  more  at  home,  and  some  expressed  a  desire 
to  return  to  the  B.  Y.  U.,  because  of  the  cordial  treatment  they  had 
received  at  the  hands  of  the  Student  Body,  represented  by  the  "Y"  boys 
of  our  school  acting  as  a  committee  of  welcome. 

Did  you  say  success?  Well!  that  was  spelled  out  in  every  game 
that  was  played  on  the  old  "Y"  Gym.  The  benches  were  filled  every 
night.  Some  people  went  to  see  how  gracefully  the  boys  from  Price 
and  Murdock  could  hold  their  hands  on  their  hips,  while  the  L.  D.  S. 
and  Weber  caged  the  pig-skin.  Many  went  to  hear  how  much  noise 
such  a  small  bunch  of  rooters  from  Heber  could  make,  while  their  team 
was  playing  with  Lehi.  Others  responded  to  the  call,  and  gladly  paid 
fifty  cents  to  see  the  beautiful  sky-pink  uniforms. 

The  last  day  of  the  tournament  came  with  the  L.  D.  S.  and  Weber 
heading  the  two  winning  lists.  From  the  time  the  first  whistle  blew 
until  Weber  won  the  game,  Archie  was  kept  busy  following  the  ball. 
.When  the  final  wistle  blew,  Weber  walked  out  champion,  amid  the 
thunderous  yells  of  the  L.  D.  S.  rooters. 

The  games  were  clean,  and  the  boys  acted  like  gentlemen  through- 
out the  evening.  It  was  an  exhibition  showing  good  training  and  clean 
sportsmanship. 

The  final  send-off  came  when  the  B.  Y.  U.,  under  the  direction  of 
the  Domestic  Science  Department,  banqueted  the  contestants  and  sent 
them  home  with  glad  hearts,  and  a  good  taste  in  their  mouths.

HE  12  o'clock  whistle  blows  just  ls  President  Brimhall  rises  to  his  feet,  with:  "Our 
attendance  last  week  was  phenomenal — 99  f  per  cent  present,  and  no  failures.  Think 
of  it!  Not  a  single  failure  in  a  school  of  1300  students,  and  with  less  than  one  per 
cent    absent!     It's   wonderful — wonderful!" 

Brother  Holt:  "Excuse  me.  President   Brimhall,  but   I   was  going   to  mention   to 

you  this  afternoon  that  most  of  the  teachers  have  not  been  figuring  their  percents 

correctly.     I  was  amazed  at  the  showing  myself,  so  went  over  a  few  of  the  reports,  and  found  that 

but  a  very  small  percentage  of  this  faculty  know  how  to  work  the  simplest  problem  in  percentage." 

President  Brimhall:  "Well,  let's  take  just  a  minute  to  have  Brother  Holt  show  us  how  it's  done." 

(Brother  Holt  goes  to  the  beard.     Miss  EUiott  looks  at  her  watch,  frowns  and  taps  her  foot 

impatiently.) 

Brother  Holt:    "Suppose  a  teacher  has  49  students  in  a  class  that  meets  every  day,  and  there 
were  3  students  absent,  you  multiply  49  by  6,  subtract  3  times  6,  divide  the  balance  by  100,  and — " 
Brother  Boyle:     "There  must  be  some  simpler  method.     That   way  is  all   right  for  the  com- 
merecial  faculty,  but  what  are  the  rest  of  us  to  do.     I  don't  understand  what  Brother  Holt  is  try- 
ing to  get  at." 

Dr.  Fletcher:  "Brother  Holt  has  a  wrong  system  entirely  (going  to  board,  picks  up  chalk  and 
commences  figuring).  The  only  way  to  find  out  the  percentage  is  first  to  find  out  the  number  of 
recitations  held  a  week,  on  a  one-student  basis,  then — " 

Professor  Hinckley:  "But  the  Music  faculty  are  the  only  ones  who  have  one-student  classes. 
Now  I  have  one  class  with  27  in,  one  class  with  5,  and — " 

Professor  Partridge  (interrupting):  "Brother  Hinckley,  don't  you  understand  what  Dr.  Fletcher 
means?  It's  as  simple  as  the  nose  on  your  face.  Now,  if  you  have  27  in  a  class  and  that  class  meets 
three  times  a  week,  and  on  Saturdays,  you  would  have — (finding  he  can't  figure  it  in  his  head,  he 
also  goes  to  the  board) — you  would  have  81  and  27  recitations  a  week  for  each  student." 

Professor  Ward's  poplar-tree  figure  makes  its  way  to  the  board:  "The  only  way  to  give  this 
faculty  a  clear  understanding  of  this,  is  to  first  work  the  problem  out  in  Algebra,  then  transpose  it 
to  Arithmetic.     Now,  the  27  students  in  Professor  Hinckley's  class  ecual  X — " 

(It  is  12:45.  Miss  Camp  slips  through  the  siide  door  into  the  library.  Hattie  and  Leona  eye 
her  enviously — they  are  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  room.) 

Miss  Reynolds  (looking  up  from  the  newspaper  she  has  been  reading):  "This  is  ridiculous.  I 
couldn't  figure  anything  like  that  out  in  twenty  years,  and  I'm  sure  I  don't  want  Miss  Evans  to 
spend  two  hours  a  week  dcing  it  for  me." 

Professor  Glade  now  goes  to  the  board:  "Let  me  explain  this.  Everybody  attention  ein!  zwi! 
Suppose  I  have  79  students  in  my  Theology  class;  that  class  is  held  sometimes  3  and  sometimes 
4  times  a  week.  I  would  hold  either  237  or  316  recitations  a  week  for  one  student,  and  for  79  stu- 
dents I  would  hold  24,964  recitations.  Now  if  there  were  19  students  absent  from  2  classes,  it 
would  be  the  same  as  19  times  6,  times  2;  total  228  students  absent,  less  316 — " 

President  Brimhall:     "I  understand  it  thoroughly.     How  many  of  the  teachers  feel  that  they 
can  hand  in  their  reports  at  the  end  of  this  week  and  know  that  they  will  be  correct?"  (No  response, 
except  from   the  professors  at  the  board.)     "Well,  we'll  stay  rt-ht  in  this  room  until  "ou  do  under- 
stand it.     Brother  nolt,  begin  all  over  again." 
Brother  Holt:     "Now,  we  have  10 — " 

Professor  Lund:  "President  Brimhall,  I  feel  that  I  understand  that  now,  and  I  should  like  to 
be  excused.     Mrs.  Lund  doesn't  like  to  wait  dinnner  later  than  1  o'clock  and — " 

President  Brimhall:  "Certainly,  Brother  Lund:  I  feel  certain  your  report  was  correct  last 
week." 

Miss  Walker:     "Professor  Lund  didn't  hand  in  his  report  last  week." 

President  Keeler  (at  whose  home  they  have  luncheon  at  1:30):  "I  move  you.  President  Brim- 
hall. that  a  committee  be  appointed  to  devise  a  scheme  of  figuring  out  this  simple  problem,  and 
that  the  same  be  presented  for  our  approval  at  the  next  weekly  faculty  meeting." 

Brother  Holt:  "  But  is  there  any  need  of  that?  Don't  you  think  they  all  understand  it  now? 
Is  it  clear  to  you.  President  Brimhall?" 

(The  1  o'clock  bell  rings  out.)  ' 

President  Brimhall::  "Yes,  but  I  can't  understand  it.  We  will  put  the  motion  on  the  table 
until  tomorrow.     Brother  Hayes,  is  the  time  up?"

JUST  A  REMINDER 

203 


TO  PROF.  HOLT:  "Say.  Professor  Holt,  don't  you  think  it's  a  shame  that  so  many  nice  girls 
are  destined  to  be  old-maid  school  teachers?  Seems  to  me  there  are  lots  of  fellows  around 
here  who  would  be  glad  to  have  wives  who  can  help  them,  financially  and  otherwise.  Now 
Anna  Evert  is  a  mighty  fine  girl.  sews,  and  all  that.  She  would  make  a  splendid  wife  for 
any  one  of  six  fellows  in  the  college.  Then  Hattie  Walker  (one  of  the  sunshiniest  little  girls 
ever  wuz)  would  make  a  dandy  wife  for  Carl  Eyring.  I've  snoken  to  him  several  times 
about  it,  and  I've  talked  to  her.  too.  And,  Brother  Holt,  you  know  Sam  Baird?  I've  tried 
to  talk  him  into  taking  her  out.  If  I  wuz  a-sparkin'.  she's  just  the  girl  I'd  choose.  Oh,  yes, 
she  would!  I  wouldn't  take  no  for  an  answer — (Seems  to  me  some  of  these  Professors  is 
mighty  busy  when  I  want  to  talk  to  them.) 

TO  WELLS  L.  BRIMHALL:  "Dean  and  that  little  Irvine  gal  is  gettin'  pretty  thick,  ain't  they? 
She  asked  him  to  the  leap-year  ball,  and  he's  been  gone  ever  since.  I  wonder  if  he's  ever 
kissed  her.  She's  so  dark  and  he's  so  fair,  they  sure  would  make  a  fine  couple.  Dean  ought 
to  go  to  school  awhile  before  the  weddin'.  though. 

TO  BROTHER  HAYES:  'Brother  Hayes,  you  see  these  young  couples  more  than  1  do,  becaus' 
they  go  to  the  dances  where  you  play.  Yes,  I'm  getting  too  old  for  dances,  but  in  my  day 
there  wasn't  a  young  fellow  in  the  country  who  could  out  do  me  with  the  girls.  Oh,  I  get 
around  about  as  good  as  the  best  of  'em,  but  them  two  falls  of  mine  just  about  put  me  on 
the  shelf.  But  don't  go.  Brother  Hayes,  what  I  want  to  know  is,  do  you  think  Alma  Rich- 
ards is  going  to  get  away  with  the  Pierpont  girl?  I  asked  her  father  about  it,  but  he  said 
Pauline  had  two  or  three  fellows  in  Salt  Lake  and  one  in  California — you  do  say!  Once  in 
awhile  somethin'  happens  I  don't  hear  about.  Do  you  know,  lots  of  the  fellows  tell  me  their 
troubles — that  flood  in  Ohio  was  awful,  wasn't  it? — yes,  of  course,  my  wife  and  I  have  a  little 
trouble  occasionally — they  tell  me  that  Jim  Bullock  is  breaking  his  heart  over  Tillie  Olsen, 
and  that  Tillie  is  in  love  with  Hal,  only  Hal  loves  that  little  black-haired  Bonnette  girl — al- 
ways some  poor  fellow  or  girl  in  trouble. 

TO  DAVE  WILSON:  "Dave,  why  don't  you  get  married?  Who  was  it  told  me  the  other  day 
that  you  were  gone  on  Nellie  Taylor,  only  she  had  a  fellow  on  a  mission.  There's  lots  of 
other  nice  girls  in  this  school.  Not  old  enough  to  get  married!  You're  kiddin'  rne!  Why, 
I  wuz  married  long  before  I  wuz  your  age.  I'll  tell  you.  Dave,  there  is  nothing  like  gettin' 
married  younp  and  having  all  your  ups-and-dowm  together.  You  afraid  of  ups-and-downs 
— why.  when  I  wuz  your  age.  I  wasn't  afraid  of  nothing — a  class,  well,  I  talk  to  you  about 
it  some  other  time  when  you  are  busy." 

TO  BERT  EASTMOND:  "Bert,  you  sure  did  surprise  me.  Do  you  know  I  wouldn't  believe  a 
word  about  your  weddin'  until  it  had  come  off.  I  thought  you  would  git  away  with  either 
one  of  our  office  girls.  Arthur  Beeley  told  me  they  wuz  both  gone  on  you.  And  say,  I 
wonder  if  Arthur  Beeley  is  goin'  to  get  married  before  he  goes  on  a  mission?  He  ought 
to,  because  you  can't  trust  girls  for  two  years.  She  will — oh,  you  don't  know  wimen  yet! 
I  haven't  seen  any  more  carnations  on  Hattie's  typewriter — afraid  to — you  make  me  laueh! 
And  Bert —  couldn't  stand  two  of  them,  why,  maybe  you  wouldn't  have  had  to  have  them 
both.    They  always  do  why — " 

TO  SOUTH  WICK:  "When  are  you  goin'  to  leave  for  your  mission?  In  June!  That's  pretty 
soon.  Say.  is  it  true  that  Lottie  is  out  in  that  mining  camp  making  her  weddin'  outfit?  Aw, 
fess  up  now!  I  saw  Schwencke  talking  to  that  little  Russell  girl  three  times  yesterda"  and 
I've  asked  a  half  dozen  since  if  they  thought — But,  by  the  way,  do  yoJ  think  Glen  Johnson 
got  that  school  up  near  Salt  Lake  to  be  close  to  Kimball?— I  think  she  did.  Mrs.  Dusenberry 
told  me  this  morning  that  Margaret  had  two  new  beaux — O,  I'm  not  around  talking  about 
other  people's  affairs,  and  I'd  rather  not  tell  their  names,  if  you  don't  mind.  But  Southwick. 
do  you  think  Randall  and — which  one  of  the  Newell  girls  is  it?  I  have  a  time  keeping  them 
all  in  mind — time  to  close  the  store.     I  just  have  one  more  question  to  ask  you:  When — " 

TO  MARION  HARRIS:  "You're  too  voung,  Marion!  Well,  twenty  isn't  old  enough  for  a  boy  to 
be  hanging  around  the  girls.  I've  seen  you  twice.  But,  Marion,  have  you  heard  when  that 
Callaway  fellow  and  that  laughin'  little  Camp  girl  are  going  to  be  wed?  I  did  hear  that 
myself,  but  they're  too  thick  for  her  to  have  another  fellow.  Mrs.  Dusenberry  told  me  this 
morning  that  Miss  Elliott  told  her  that  Miss  Ward  said  that  Hermese  Peterson  and  Lottie 
Harris  were  both  broken-hearted,  and  that — say,  Marion,  do  you  knew  anything  about  Merle 
Murdock  and  that  Greenwocd  basketball  player?  I'm  trying  to  keep  things  straight,  but  it's 
rather  hard — well.  I'll  tell  you  about  it  again  some  time."

At  1:02  Prof.  Osmond  reaches  for  his  roll-book;    "All  those  who  are  not  on  time  will  be  considered 

late  and  theoretically  absent." 
(Rose  Welker,  Miss  Eyring.  and  Peter  Parkinson  arrive  just  in  time  to  hear  the  word  "absent."    A 

sound  as  of  an  injured  puppy  is  heard  in  the  corridor,  and  Jim  Clove,  red-faced  and  puffing, 

enters  the  room  and  slops  all  over  the  nearest  chair.) 
Prof.  Osmond:    "I  do  wish.  Brother  Clove,  that  you  would  soak  your  shoes  in  warm  water  tonight 

so  you  won't  disturb  this  class  for  three  minutes  before  you  enter  the  room.     Are  you  pre- 
pared today?" 
Clove:     "I  have  written  three  themes,  hunted  the    derivation    of   250   words,    read    twenty    simple 

paragraphs  in  Gcnung's,  but  I  had  to  find  out  why  the  sun  sets  for  Dr.  Fletcher,  so  couldn't 

write  those  two  special  briefs  you  wanted." 
Roy  Welker:     "If  jimmie  thinks  Genung's  is  simple,  he's  the  only  one  in  the  class  who  does.     It 

took  me  two  months  to  get  used  to  it.     I  used  to  study  six  hours  a  day  for  this  class;  now  I 

can  get  my  preparations  in  eighteen   hours  a  week." 
Prof.   Osmond:     "'Silence   is  the   perfectest  herald  of  Joy.'     Mr.  Welker,  I  did  not  call  on  you  to 

talk.     The  time  it  takes  to  prepare  a  lesson    depends    entirely    upon    the    student.        'Well- 
arranged  time  is  the  surest  mark  of  a  well-arranged  mind."     Time  is  the  old  Justice  that  ex- 
amines all  offenders.'     Mr.  Beard,  how  long  did  it  take  you  to  get  your  preparation?" 
Clarence:     "I  was  up  at  4:30  this  morning    and — 
Prof.  Osmond:     "I  was  not  talking   to  you;  it  is  understood  that  vou  will  take  all  the  time  you 

can." 
Chauncey:     "I  only  had  four  hours  to  eive  to  this  lesson  today,  and — " 
Prof.  Osmond:     "Mr.  Winn,  read  your  theme.     You    have    been    eminently    successful    this   winter. 

(Miss  Eyring,  you  and   Mr.  Taylor  are  making  too  much  noise.    'Gossip  is  always  a  personal 

confession  either  of  malice  or  imbecility.')" 
(Frank  Winn  reads,  "My  Lost  Love;"  Miss  Welker  sobs  hysterically.) 
Prof.  Osmond  (looking  at  Rose):  '"As  in  the  sweetest  bud  the  eating  canker  dwells,  so  eating  love 

inhabits  in  the  finest  wits  of  all.'     Brother  Beard,  let  us  hear  your  poem." 
Chauncey: 

"  'Twas  morn  when  I  awoke  to  see. 

My  Viv  had  run  away  from  me. 

She  whom  I  lov'd  with  all  my  heart — 

And  we  had  promised  ne'er  to  part; 

But  now  I  can  get  Venice,  I  think — 

That  is,  if  I  can  get  the  chink. 

So  I  turn  my  voice  to  God, 

And  throw  mv  cares  down  on  the  sod." 
Prof.  Osmond:    "I  did  not  quite  catch  all  the  words:  please  repeat."    (Chauncey  re-reads  his  poem.) 

"Very,  very  fine;  reminds  me  of  Shakespeare's  sonnet,  'When  to  the  sessions  of  sweet  silent 

thought,  I   summon  up  remembrance  of  things  past.'     Did  Mr.  Winn  help  you?" 
Chauncey:  "No,  sir.     I  did  it  under  inspiration." 
Prof.   Osmond:     "Mr.   Parkinson,  read   your   poem  on  Hamlet's  Soliloquy. — Oh,  I  forgot  that  you 

are  theoretically  not  here.     We  cannot  hear  from  you  tcday." 
(A  shadow  crosses  the  window.     Lois  points  her  finger,  and  all  the  class  watch  Howe  Chipman  go 

down   the   oatn.     A   half-minute  later,   Pearl  comes  into  the  room.) 
Prof.   Osmond:     "Miss   Romney.   theoretically  speaking,   you   haven't  been  to  this  class   once  this 

year.     You  owe  me  320  themes,  and  you  have   failed   me   at   least    1000   times   when    I   have 

called  on  you  to  give  definitions.     Where  is  your  theme  tcday?" 
Pearl:   "Why,  Prof.  Osmond,  I  was  ill  last  night,  and  the  night  before  I  had  company,  and  the  night 

before  that  I  tried  hard  to  study,  but  I  didn't  know — " 
Prof.  Osmond:    "We  can't  take  up  the  time  of  this   class   with   flimsy   excuses.       'Talkers   are   not 

doers.'     Miss,  Miss.  Miss.  Miss— Miss,  Miss  H — Miss  Hicks  (I  promise  never  to  forget  your 

name  again),   give  us  the  etymology  of  the  word  'Alexander'." 
Bertha:     "Alexander  is  an  old  Rom — " 
Peter  P:     "Romance — she  means." 
(The  2  o'clock  bell  is  heard  in  the  distance.) 

Prof.  Osmond:    "There  is  the  bell.     For  tomorrow  write  the  following  themes: 
Higher  Criticism 
The  Paraphrase

NE  of  the  most  refreshing  entertainments  which  has  been  given  under 
the  direction  of  the  Student  Body,  was  the  concert  in  the  Stake  Taber- 
nacle Friday,  May  2nd. 

The  music  rendered  by  the  combined  School  and  Tabernacle  Choirs 
was  good  enough  to  be  sung  in  any  house  of  royalty. 

The  singing  of  Mrs.  Fay  Loose  Stiehl  was  enjoyed  by  the  audience, 
and  much  applause  was  heard  after  the  final  selection,  which  was  evi- 
dence of  a  desire  for  more. 

For  a  while  we  thought  that  the  crowd  would  never  let  Mrs.  Sybella 
Clayton  Bassett  have  a  rest,  so  great  was  the  applause  after  the  rendi- 
tion of  each  piece. 

The  Orchestra  was  in  splendid  working  order,  and  filled  us  with 
emotions  of  love,  sorrow,  laughter  and  dance. 

All  those  who  featured  in  the  concert  must  flatter  themselves  on 
the  huge  success.

O  with  a  smile  all  the  while  to  beguile 

Us  to  fearing  comes  our    foes  from  the  north. 

They  are  most  certain  they'll  win 

An  easy  victory. 

But,  with  our  team,  they  do  seem  in  a  dream 

For  so  quickly  are  they  left  in  the  rear — 

And  now  they  tremble  to  hear 

This  sweet  refrain: 

CHORUS 
"Our  dear  old  College 
Knows  not  defeat,  (Rah!  Rah!  Rah!) 
We  always  beat, 

This  is  our  motto,  when  we  enter  the  contest, 
Ever  to  greet  (Rah!  Rah!  Rah!) 
More  victory  for  the  B.  Y.  U." 

Now  in  the  fight,  they  are  quite  out  of  sight; 

In  the  middle  of  the  game,  so  to  say, 

They  are  beginning  to  sway 

In  our  direction. 

How  hard  they  try,  but,  O  my!  'tis  too  high, 

They  can  ne'er  catch  up  with  us  any  more. 

O  now  just  look  at  that  score 

And  sing  for  joy . 

Our  glorious  banner  waves  on  high. 
Folds  of  white  and  blue  are  streaming 

And  our  star  of  fortune  in  the  sky, 
Like  the  noon-day  sun  is  beaming. 

And  our  hearts  beat  true  to  our  college, 

To  its  name  may  its  sons  be  ever  true. 

Long  live  its  glorious  name! 

Long  live  its  glorious  name! 

We'll  rise,  we'll  rise  and  shout. 

And  shout  for  dear  B.  Y.  U. 
On,  on  to  victory ! 

Hark!  the  signal  trumpet  calls  us  forth 

To  the  field  of  fame  and  glory, 
Where  the  haughty  foemen  from  the  North 

Will  be  taught  this  truthful  story : 
That  our  flag  which  so  proudly  is  waving 
The  folds  of  the  dear  White  and  Blue, 
Shall  never  kiss  the  dust! 
Shall  never  kiss  the  dust ! 
While  life,  while  life,  and  strength, 
And  strength,  and  being  shall  last, 
We'll  fight  for  victory! 


Who  has  the  team  now?

All  hail  the  College  that  we  love 

At  the  throne,  the  throne  of  wisdom's  sway, 
Oh,  let  us  lift  our  songs  above 

The  thronging  multitude  today. 
No  pride  of  riches  here  may  sue ; 

The  head,  the  heart,  the  hand, 
United  must  be  true — 
Be  true  to  thee,  our  White  and  Blue, 

When  they  join  our  happy  band. 

CHORUS 
Then  cheer  anew  for  the  B.  Y.  U. 
We've  come  to  work,  to  live  to  do ; 
We'll  raise  the  standard — bear  it  through; 
Our  hearts  are  true  to  the  B.  Y.  U. 


There  is  no  emblem  half  so  sweet 

As  our  colors,  colors  pure  and  true. 
There  is  no  banner  that  we  greet 

Like  thee,  our  dear  old  White  and  Blue. 
No  youth  its  beauty  e'er  denies; 

Such  thought  no  maid  allows, 
For  Blue  is  in  her  eyes. 
For  Blue  is  in  her  bonnie  eyes, 

And  of  white  her  thoughtful  brow.

HE  Brigham  Young  University  has  the  oldest  Lyceum  Bureau  in  the 
state.  It  really  dates  from  the  beginning  of  the  Institution,  and  in 
the  early  days  was  known  as  the  Polysophical  Society.  Lectures  or 
recitals  were  then  given  every  Friday  night.  In  the  main  the  lec- 
tures were  given  by  members  of  the  Faculty  or  by  men  resident  withirt  the  state. 
In  the  year  1896  the  first  man  of  prominence  was  brought  from  abroad,  when 
William  Jennings  Bryan  was  introduced.  From  then  on  the  course  grew  rapidly. 
For  the  past  seven  years  the  regular  course  has  included  eight  numbers  each 
year,  and  as  a  rule  some  extras.  This  year  (1912-13)  we  have  had  four  extra 
numbers.  During  the  history  of  the  course  we  have  had  about  one  hundred  dis- 
tinguished men  and  women  from  all  over  the  world  appear.  Among  them  such 
men  as  W.  J.  Bryan,  Geo.  R.  Wendling,  David  Starr  Jordan,  Richmond  P.  Hob- 
son,  Senator  Thos.  P.  Gore,  Elbert  Hubbard,  Captain  Roald  Amundson,  Jerome

Von  Ardt,  Ignace  Haroldi,  and  Karl  Klein. 

If  the  past  may  be  regarded  as  a  prophecy  of  the  future,  great  things  can  be

Sam  Nicholes  answered  the  advertisement,  "How  to  avoid  falling  hair."  This 
was  the  simple  answer:  "Step  nimbly  aside  when  you  see  it  coming  your  way." 

Willie:  "Do  you  know  everything,  Pa?" 

Pa:     "Yes,  my  son." 

Willie:     "Well,  is  a  freckled  bookkeeper  a  spotted  adder?" 

In  a  race  with  time,  why  should  Prof.  Gudmundson  win?  Because  time  flies, 
and  he  beats  time. 

What  is  a  put-up  job?    The  paper  on  the  wall. 

Welker,  Jr.:    "Say,  Papa,  does  your  tongue  ever  get  tired?" 

Welker,  Sr. :  "Yes,  sir,  it  does." 

Welker,  Jr.:     "Well,  why  don't  you  use  the  tongue  in  your  shoe,  then?" 

Prof.  Maw  (in  Chemistry)  :  "Brother  McClellan,  suppose  you  were  a  piece  of 
silver  and  I  poured  some  hydrochloric  acid  on  you,  what  would  happen?" 
Mac. :    "I  would  precipitate." 

President  Brimhall:  "Evidently,  Dean,  when  you  spend  Sunday  in  Salt  Lake 
you  do  not  go  to  Church." 

Dean:     "No;  but  I  go  to  worship,  just  the  same." 

Prof.  Rasmussen:     "Beeley,  what  is  the  spine?" 

Arthur:  "It  is  a  long,  limber  bone  with  your  head  resting  on  one  end,  while 
you  sit  on  the  other." 

A  good  example  of  an  hyperbole  in  English  is  one  of  Prof  Osmond's  Eng- 
lish assignments. 

Norma:     "How  do  you  like  my  new  dress?" 
Lael:  "How  do  you  like  mine?" 

Norma :  "Well,  Lael,  to  be  honest,  it  reminds  me  of  a  Roman  amphitheatre 
— plent  of  room. 

Miss  Reynolds  (in  English  16):  "What  is  the  revival  of  learning  and  when 
did  it  come?" 

Leona  Billings:  "Why,  it's  a  cramming  for  exams.,  and  it  comes  at  the  end 
of  each  month." 

Merline :  "What  would  you  prescribe  for  a  person  who  has  fallen  desper- 
ately in  love?" 

Hattie  W.:  "Reservation  (Uintah)." 

That  baseball  player  that  died  last  week  is  reported  to  have  gone  below.    On 
his  arrival  there  he  inquired  as  to  what  was  doing  in  the  way  of  amusements. 
"Baseball  every  afternoon,"  answered  the  Devil. 
"Good,"  said  the  player,  "but  this  cannot  be  hell." 
"Yes  it  is,"  answered  his  satanic  majesty,  "the  home  team  always  gets  beat." 

Prof.  Hinckley  (at  the  postofiice  in  Springville)  :     "My  mail,  please." 

Postmaster:  "Name,  please?" 

Prof.  Hinckley:     "Why,  it's  on  the  letter,  you  crank!" 

LAST  JOKE 
If  students  who  have  abused  a  privilege  in  not  purchasing  a  year  book,  think 
themselves  peaches,  their  mothers  did  not  know  to  preserve  fruit.

nook  and  cranny  on  the  campus, 
each  student  group,  each  pidure  of

That  these  happy  hours  have  changed  the

Probably  all  this  has  come  to  you  through
